Latin edit

Etymology edit

From Proto-Italic *sistō, from Proto-Indo-European *stísteh₂ti, from the root *steh₂- (“stand”). Related to stō (“stand, be stood”), from the same root, with which sistō shares its supine forms.

Cognates include Ancient Greek ἵστημι (hístēmi) and Sanskrit तिष्ठति (tíṣṭhati).
