Definition sea

Etymology

From Middle English see, from Old English s? (�sea, lake�), from Proto-Germanic *saiwiz (compare West Frisian see, Dutch zee, German See, Norwegian Bokm�l sj�, Swedish sj�), probably either from Proto-Indo-European *sh?ey-wo- (�to be fierce, afflict�) (compare Latin saevus (�wild, fierce�), Tocharian saiwe (�itch�), Latvian sievs, s?vs (�sharp, biting�); more at sore) or derived from *s?hwan? (�to percolate, filter�), in which case *saiwiz is from earlier *saigwiz, Pre-Germanic *soyk?-�s.
