verb Weak class 2 to appropriate, take possession of; to make one’s own From the adjectival stem of Proto-Germanic *aiganaz/*aiginaz (‘possessed, one’s own’), the lexicalized past participle of *aiganą + *-ōną; literally ‘to make one’s own’ Kroonen 2013: 8 Ringe 2017: 285. The base ultimately belongs to Proto-Indo-European *h₂eyḱ-. A cognate of the root is Vedic Sanskrit ईश, supporting an inherited IE sense of ‘possess, control’ Mallory & Adams 1997: 270.
