Etymology

[edit]

    Origin uncertain. Perhaps from Middle English *pod ("seed-pod, husk, shell, outer covering"; attested in pod-ware (legume seed; seed grain)), itself possibly from Old English pād (an outer garment, covering, coat, cloak), from Proto-West Germanic *paidu, from Proto-Germanic *paidō (coat, smock, shirt), from Proto-Indo-European *baiteh₂- (woolen clothes). If so, then cognate with Old Saxon pēda (skirt), German dialectal Pfeid, Pfeit (shirt), Gothic 𐍀𐌰𐌹𐌳𐌰 (paida, mantle, skirt), and perhaps Albanian petk (gown, garment, dress, suit) and Ancient Greek βαίτη (baítē, goat-skin, fur-coat, tent).
