*natǭ
Runic: ᚾᚨᛏᛟ Pronunciation: /ˈnɑ.tɔ̃ː/noun · feminine · ōn-stem
Meanings
nettle
Etymology
Uncertain; perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *neh₂d- (‘to twist, knot, tie’), whence also *natją (‘net’), as nettle fibers were used for making nets. In this case, possibly cognate with Old Irish nenaid (‘nettle’), Proto-Slavic *natь (‘leaves and stems of some vegetables’), the latter which may have been borrowed from Germanic.
