Definition wont

Etymology 1

Origin uncertain; apparently a conflation of wone (“custom, habit, practice”) and wont (participle adjective, below). Compare German Low German Gewohnte (“custom, habit”). Likely related to wone, wonder, wean, and win, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *wenh?- (“to wish for, strive for, pursue; to succeed, win”); more there.
