Etymology 1 edit
From Proto-Italic *iðei or Proto-Italic *ifei with iambic shortening, from the pronominal stem Proto-Indo-European *éy, whence also is. In the first case cognate to Sanskrit इह (iha, “here”), (from Proto-Indo-Aryan *Hidʰá (“here”)), Avestan 𐬌𐬛𐬁 (idā, “here, in the same way”), Proto-Slavic *jьde, in the latter recalls the ins.pl. suffix *-bʰi. The same suffix is present in ubi ~ ubī.
