Etymology

From Old Danish biuthæ, from Old Norse bjóða, from Proto-Germanic *beudaną (to offer), cognate with English bid and German bieten. The Germanic verb goes back to Proto-Indo-European *bʰewdʰ- (to wake, rise up), which is also the source of Sanskrit बुद्ध (buddha, awakened, enlightened) (hence buddha).
