Where this word comes from

Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ed- (“grain, barley”). The term may derive from Proto-Italic *adōs, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂éd-ōs (“dried stuff, grain”, collective). Alternatively, it may derive from Proto-Italic *ados, from *h₂éd-os, perhaps whence also Old Irish ad, Gothic 𐌰𐍄𐌹𐍃𐌺 (atisk), and Old Armenian հատ (hat). Hittite [script needed] (ḫattar) has also been connected, though this is highly uncertain.
