Etymology 2

From Middle English þe. The letter y was sometimes used for þ (“thorn”), a letter which corresponds to modern th, because þ did not exist in the first press typographies, so was replaced using either "th", which replaced it, or "y", which resembled it in Late Medieval and Early Modern Blackletter. Etymological y was for a time distinguished by a dot, ?, but the letters were conflated when that was dropped.
