edit- ѣда́ (jědá) — Pre-reform orthography (1918)
Etymology
editInherited from Proto-Slavic *ěda, from *(j)ěsti (“to eat”), from Proto-Balto-Slavic *ḗˀstei, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ed- (“to eat”). Cognates include Ancient Greek ἔδω (édō), Latin edō, Sanskrit अत्ति (átti), Lithuanian ė́sti (“to eat (of animals), to swallow, to gobble”), Hittite 𒂊𒀉𒈪 (eidmi, “I eat”), Old English etan (English eat).
Pronunciation
editNoun
editеда́ • (jedá) f inan (genitive еды́, uncountable)
Usage notes
editEда́ is more the general concept or idea of edible sustenance, rather than something specific. For instance, if one would like to say, "Let's get some food," it is better to say, "Давай купим что-нибудь поесть," not, "Давай купим еду."
