winʹterish adjective

Word History: Winter, spring, summer, fall. It is not too difficult to see how the season names spring and fall came into being, but without some background information it is impossible to tell what the origins of the words winter and summer are. Summer goes back to the Indo-European root sem-, meaning "summer." From a suffixed form of this root came the prehistoric Common Germanic word sumaraz, the ancestor of Old English sumor and its descendant, Modern English summer. This is the only Indo-European root referring to a season that has survived in an English name for a season. Of the other three, wesr-,"spring," has produced words such as vernal; ghyem-,"winter," has given us words such as hibernate; and esen-,"harvest, fall," has yielded earn (from the prehistoric Common Germanic word aznōn,"to do harvest work, serve"). Winter does, however, go back to the Indo-European root wed-,"water, wet." From the form we-n-d- of this root with the nasal infix -n- was derived the Germanic word wintruz, with the underlying meaning "wet season" and the literal meaning "winter." The Germanic word is the source of Old English winter, the ancestor of Modern English winter.
