=== Etymology ===
From Proto-West Germanic *fōt.
The nominative and accusative plural fēt is the result of an umlaut: the first vowel in Proto-West Germanic plural *fōti shifted into a close-mid front rounded vowel in order to harmonize it with the last vowel. After speakers dropped the last vowel, the front rounded vowel became unrounded.
