editEtymology
editEarlier rhoddi, from a conflation of two separate stems:
- Middle Welsh roi (“to give”), from Proto-Brythonic *rroɣid (compare Cornish ry (“to give”), Breton reiñ (“to give”)), from Proto-Celtic *rogīti (“to extend forward”) (compare Old Irish rogaid (“to extend”)), from Proto-Indo-European *h₃roǵéyeti (“to straighten”)
- Middle Welsh rodi (“to give”),[1] from Proto-Brythonic *rrodid (deuterotonic), *rröð (prototonic); from Proto-Celtic *ɸro-dīti (“to put forward”), from Proto-Indo-European *dʰédʰeh₁ti (“to put”)[2]
