Etymology

edit

The adverb sense is from the former est (evening) +‎ -vel (with) (a derivation similar to reggel or tavasszal). First the final -l wore off and the adverb estve (in the evening) was used for a long time[1] (still in use today in dialects), later the -v was dropped. The noun sense became independent from the compound word napeste (sunset, literally the fall of the sun). The noun est is from the es- stem of the verb esik (to fall) +‎ -t (noun-forming suffix). The es- stem is from Proto-Uralic *ećɜ- (to fall).[2][3]

Pronunciation
