Hungarian

Alternative forms

• estve (folksy, archaic)

Etymology

The adverb sense is from the former est (“evening”) +‎ -vel (“with”) (a derivation similar to reggel or tavasszal). First the final -l wore off and the adverb estve (“in the evening”) was used for a long time^[1] (still in use today in dialects), later the -v was dropped. The noun sense became independent from the compound word napeste (“sunset”, literally “the fall of the sun”). The noun est is from the es- stem of the verb esik (“to fall”) +‎ -t (noun-forming suffix). The es- stem is from Proto-Uralic *ećɜ- (“to fall”).^[2][3]

Pronunciation
