īme

Possibly from Proto-Tocharian *wiäime. (The reconstruction is somewhat shaky, as the seemingly related Tocharian A term is in fact borrowed from this one.) Further connections are uncertain. Possibly from the widespread Proto-Indo-European *weyd- (“to see”). In that case, cognate with Latin video, English idea, and German wissen.
