umeo
Latin edit

Etymology edit
From Proto-Italic *ūmo- (“wet”), of uncertain origin.
Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *wegʷ- (“wet; to irrigate; ox”), and compared with Ancient Greek ὑγρός (hugrós, “wet, moist, fluid”), Old Norse vǫkr (“moist, damp, wet”), English weaky.
However, Weiss and De Vaan are skeptical of this derivation, and instead derive the word from a Proto-Indo-European *uh₁mo- (“wet”). Cognates would include Lithuanian umas (“quick”), as well as perhaps ūrīna (“urine”) and Sanskrit वार् (vār, “water”).[1]
