Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *sew-? Proto-Indo-European *sewH- Proto-Indo-European *peh₃- Proto-Indo-European *su(H)ph₃néh₂-der.? Proto-Germanic *suppōną Proto-Germanic *sūpaną Proto-West Germanic *sūpan Old English sūpan Middle English soupen English sup The verb is from Middle English soupen, from Old English sūpan (“to sip, drink, taste”), from Proto-Germanic *sūpaną (compare Dutch zuipen (“to drink, tipple, booze”), German saufen (“to drink, booze”), Swedish supa (“to drink, swallow”)), from Proto-Indo-European *sub-, compare Sanskrit सूप (sū́pa, “soup, broth”), from *sewe (“to take liquid”). More at suck. The noun is from the verb. There is no evidence of continuity with Old English supa. Compare Middle English soupe, from Old English sūpe, which has the same meaning as Middle English sope (“a mouthful or small amount of drink”), from Old English sopa, whence sop.
