noun masculine a-stem a year Traditionally from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ét-no-, a *-no- formation beside the rare verbal base reflected by Sanskrit अतसि de Vaan 2008: 43–44 Rix et al. 2001: 273. Cognate with Latin annus, Oscan aceneis, akenei, and Umbrian acnu < Proto-Italic *atno- de Vaan 2008: 43–44 Kroonen 2013: 40. Root accent is required by Germanic Ringe 2017: 137, since suffixal accent would have produced **atta- by Kluge’s Law Kroonen 2013: 40. Alternatively, *atno- may continue Western PIE *h₂etmno-, connecting Old Irish amm and Gaulish amman Stifter 2017: 220–222 Weiss 2022: 129. Gothic is attested only as dat. pl. 𐌰𐌸𐌽𐌰𐌼, which cannot distinguish masculine from neuter. Gender/Declension

Based on a single, ambiguous attestation in Gothic, it is unclear if the original noun was masculine or neuter, with a slight bias towards masculine, given the Latin cognate's gender.
