From Latin ovum .
From Middle French eu , from Old French eü , from Vulgar Latin * habūtus , replacing Classical Latin habitus .
The spelling, which contradicts the pronunciation, is because Middle French -eu- besides /ø/ also sometimes represented long /yː/ . The latter cases were generally replaced with -û- in Early Modern French, e.g. dû , flûte for Middle French deu , fleute . However, in the case of eu and related forms the spelling û was considered awkward and so the Middle French form was preserved.
From Old Galician-Portuguese eu , from Late Latin eo , from Classical Latin egō̆ .
Compare Ancient Greek εὖ ( eû , “ well ” , adverb ) .
From Old Irish occaib .
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian * kahiw , from Proto-Austronesian * kaSiw .
Inherited from Vulgar Latin * habutum .
