Where this word comes from

Inherited from Early Medieval Latin andāre, of uncertain origin. Most forms in the present tenses were contaminated by vādere, with the expected first person singular *ano, second person singular *anes, third person singular *ana, and third person plural *anen in the present indicative and their present subjunctive counterparts (*ani, *anis, *ani, and *anin, in the same order), are obsolete due to contamination from vādere, and īre contaminated the future root (and thus the future and conditional), resulting in *anir- instead of *anar-.
