Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Most likely of native origin:
- Equivalent to Proto-Indo-European *ken-do-, from *(s)ken- + *-do. Indo-European cognates include Ancient Greek καινός (kainós, “new”), Latin recēns (“new, fresh”), Sanskrit कन्या (kanyā), Old Irish cenél (“race; people; kind”), Middle Welsh bachgen (“boy”). For the suffix, compare *stado (“herd, flock”) < *stati (“to stand, become”) + *-do.
- ESSJa: *čędъ, *čęda, *čędo originally were deverbal adjectives from *čęti + *-dъ, parallel to *čętъ, *čęta, *čęto. Trubačev compares the voicing to that in Proto-Slavic *tvьrdъ : Lithuanian tvirtas.
An early theory considered Proto-Slavic *čę̀do a borrowing[1] from Proto-Germanic *kinþą / *kindą. Such an etymology, however, fails to explain related terms with s-mobile like Old East Slavic щадок (ščadok, “offspring”). Furthermore, *čęd- is the only proposed Germanic loanword which undergoes first palatalization. That would require a very early date of borrowing.
Martynov considers instead Proto-Germanic *kindą a borrowing from Slavic. He further associates *čęd- with *čęstь (“part”), proposing original meaning “branch, descent” → “offspring”.
