Etymology 1
[edit]From Proto-Italic *tendō, from Proto-Indo-European *ténd-e-ti, from Proto-Indo-European *tend-, extension of Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“to stretch, draw”). Sihler traces the /d/ back to the ordinary present suffix -ye in position after *n (cf. offendō, dēfendō from *gʷʰen-ye-). Cognates include Ancient Greek τείνω (teínō), Sanskrit तनोति (tanóti) and Old English þennan. The perfect stem, tetend-, is a combination of the present stem tend- and the Proto-Italic perfect stem teton-.
