Etymology

Cognate with Mordvinic видемс ‎(videms, “to sow”) (also “to lose” in Erzya, “to scatter” in Moksha.) According to UEW, from Proto-Finno-Ugric *wettä ‎(“to throw”). Veršinin has doubts of this connection, suggesting that the initial element might be secondary and that the term might be cognate with Estonian idanema ‎(“to sprout”).[1][2]
