語源

There is some disagreement on origin of this prefix:

• From Proto-Indo-European *h₂ew (“out, away”). Compare Latin au-, Sanskrit अव (áva), Old Irish úa (“from, of”).^[1]
• From Proto-Italic *s(w)ē-, from Proto-Indo-European *swé (“self”), whence also Latin sē- (“separately; without”), sē (“oneself”), sed (“but”).^[2]
• By reanalysis of the contracted form of vehemēns (“very eager, furious”), vēmēns, as vē- and mēns (“mind”).^[2]

発音

• (Classical) IPA^(key): /weː/
