Definition five

Etymology

From Middle English five, vif, fif, from Old English f?f (“five”), from Proto-Germanic *fimf (“five”) (compare West Frisian fiif, Dutch vijf, German fünf, Norwegian and Swedish fem, Icelandic fimm), from Proto-Indo-European *pénk?e (compare Welsh pump, Latin quinque, Tocharian A päñ, Tocharian B pi?, Lithuanian penki, Russian ???? (pjat?), Albanian pesë, pêsë, Ancient Greek ????? (pénte), Armenian ???? (hing), Persian ???‎ (panj), Sanskrit ???? (páñca)).

The nasal *m in Proto-Germanic *fimf was lost through a sound change known as the Ingvaeonic nasal spirant law.
