Etymology: From (term, Äow) < West (proto, Germanic, iwwiz) < (proto, Indo-European, ju).See usage notes. (term, ye, Ye) and (term, you) are cognate with German (term, ihr, lang=de) and (term, euch, lang=de), respectively. (term, ye, Ye) is also cognate with archaic Swedish (term, i, lang=sv). The presence of final -r in the German form is from an earlier -z, and is mirrored by the final -r"s in German (term, er, lang=de) and (term, wir, lang=de), whereas English (term, he) and (term, we) lack the -r; Dutch and Scandinavian follow English in this respect.
