Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *einas (with ey > ie metathesis; from a Proto-Indo-European *éyno-, éynos, from *éy, *óy (“he, it”) (non-Baltic cognates derive from *óy; compare Proto-Indo-European *óynos (“one”)) with a suffix *-no, which originally had an adjectival meaning. The Eastern Baltic cognates (unlike Old Prussian) have an initial v, which suggests an intermediate Eastern Baltic form *weinas. This initial *w may result from sporadic word-initial consonant-joining phenomena, or from a possible particle *w-, *we-. For the change compare Belarusian воблака (vóblaka) and Russian о́блако (óblako), Belarusian во́зера (vózjera) and Old East Slavic озеро (ozero), etc. Cognate with Latvian viêns.
