Where this word comes from
abbed + verdighet, first part from Old Norse ábóti, abbati, a term likely borrowed via Old English abbod, from Medieval Latin abbās (“abbot”), from Ancient Greek ἀββᾶς (abbâs), alternative form of ἀββα (abba, “father; title of respect given to abbots”) from Aramaic אבא (’abbā, “father, teacher, chief”), from Proto-Semitic *ʔabw- (“father”), from Proto-Afroasiatic *ʔab-, ultimately an onomatopoeic nursery word. Last part verdighet (“worthiness, dignity”), from both verdig (“worthy, dignified”), from Old Norse verðugr, from verð + the suffix -ig from -ugr, Old Norse -igr (“-y”), from *-ugaz, Proto-Germanic *-īgaz (“-y”) or from Low German -ig (“-y”) or German -ig (“-y”), from Middle High German -ec, -ic, from Old High German -ig, from Proto-West Germanic *-g, both from Proto-Germanic *-gaz (“-y”), from Proto-Indo-European *-kos (“-y”) + the suffix -het from Middle Low German -heit, from Proto-Germanic *haiduz (“manner, way”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)keyt-, *(s)keydʰ- (“clear, bright, shining”).
