Definition she

Etymology

From Middle English sche, hye (“she”), from earlier scho, hyo, ?ho (“she”), a phonetic development of Old English h?o, h?o (“she”), from Proto-Germanic *hij? f (“this, this one”), from Proto-Indo-European *?e-, *?ey- (“this, here”). Cognate with English dialectal hoo (“she”), Scots scho, shu (“she”), Saterland Frisian jo, ju (“she”), West Frisian hja (“she”), North Frisian (“she”), Danish hun (“she”), Swedish hon (“she”). More at he.

Despite the similarity in appearance, the Old English feminine demonstrative s?o (“that”) is probably not the source of Middle English forms in sch-. Rather, the sch- developed out of a change in stress upon hío resulting in hió, spelt ?ho (?h = h?, compare wh = hw, lh = hl, etc.), and the h was palatalised into the sh sound. Similar alteration can be seen the name Shetland, from Old Norse Hjaltland; ?ho is the immediate parent form of Middle English scho and sche.
