Definition sneeze
Etymology
From Middle English snesen (“to sneeze”), alteration of earlier fnesen (“to sneeze”), from Old English fn?osan (“to snort, sneeze”), from Proto-Germanic *fneusan? (“to sneeze, snort”), from Proto-Indo-European *pnew- (“to breathe, sneeze”). Cognate with dialectal Dutch fniezen (“to sneeze”), Old Norse fnýsa (“to snort”); Middle English neosen (“to sneeze”), from Old Norse hnjósa (“to sneeze”), Old High German niosan (“to sneeze”).
The infrequency of the fn combination, coupled with the visual similarity of an f and ? (long s), assisted in ultimately turning fneeze into ?neeze (sneeze) (compare snore, from Middle English fnore).
