Proto-Germanic *uz- Proto-Indo-European *bʰeydʰ- Proto-Indo-European *bʰéydʰeti Proto-Germanic *bīdaną Proto-Germanic *uzbīdaną Proto-West Germanic *uʀbīdan Old English ābīdan Middle English abyden English abide From Middle English abyden, from Old English ābīdan (“to abide, wait, remain, delay, remain behind; survive; wait for, await; expect”), from Proto-West Germanic *uʀbīdan, from Proto-Germanic *uzbīdaną (“to expect, tolerate”), equivalent to a- + bide. Cognate with Scots abide (“to abide, remain”), Middle High German erbīten (“to await, expect”), Gothic 𐌿𐍃𐌱𐌴𐌹𐌳𐌰𐌽 (usbeidan, “to expect, await, have patience”). The sense of pay for is due to influence from aby.
