  1. Etymology
    • (Etymonline) Old English "sheet of water, sea, lake, pool," from Proto-Germanic *saiwa- (...), of unknown origin ...
    • (Wiktionary) probably ... from Proto-Indo-European *sh₂ey-wo- (“to be fierce, afflict”) (compare Latin saevus (“wild, fierce”) ... cf. Korean 세다 (se-da, "to be strong, powerful")
    • (This project) English sea and the like may not mean "sheet of water" (Etymonline) but "seat of water," hence cognate with See of Holy See, both derived from Latin sedes (“seat”) related to Latin verb sedere (“to sit”).
