Where this word comes from
Probably from the Old Latin locative hoi + -ce, from Proto-Indo-European *gʰe and Proto-Indo-European *ḱe (“here”), according to De Vaan (2008). Compare the mostly pre-Classical hōc (“to this place, for this reason”), which De Vaan says is from an instrumental case form. Compare the same alternation between illūc and the older illōc. See also hinc.
