u̯i̯eth-, u̯ith- (*su̯eisu-)

    u̯i̯eth-, u̯ith- (*su̯eisu-)

    English meaning: to shake

    Deutsche Übersetzung: ‘schũtteln”

    Material: O.Ind. vyáthatē “ sways, taumelt, geht schief, kommt to Falle, shrugs, jerks, weicht”, vithurá- “ fluctuating, mangelhaft”; Goth. wiÞōn ‘shake”; relationship to *u̯ei-1 “turn” is probably, da in Kreise this root words for “waver, hin and her bewegen” right frequent, often are.
