Anagrams

Latin

Etymology

Perhaps a denominative verb from Proto-Italic *dwejos, itself possibly related to Latin bonus (“good”) (from Proto-Italic *dwenos). However, this etymology is uncertain and it is difficult to connect the term to Proto-Indo-European. Moreover, it is equally possible that the verb was formed from an adjective of the shape *bejo- or a noun *bejā-.[1]
