All forms except for the present, imperfect, and the verbal noun are from forms of Proto-Celtic *essi, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ed-. The perfect forms are from dí- +‎ fo- + Proto-Celtic *āde (preterite of *essi), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁e-h₁od-e. The subjunctive forms are from Proto-Celtic *esseti, s-subjunctive of *essi. The future forms are from Proto-Celtic *īsseti, reduplicated s-future of *essi, with *ī from Proto-Indo-European *h₁i-h₁e-. The future is inflected like an a-subjunctive, not like a regular s-future. The verbal noun is from Proto-Celtic *ɸityā, derived from Proto-Indo-European *peyt- (“to nourish, feed”). Cognate with Old Church Slavonic питѣти (pitěti, “nourish”) and Sanskrit पितु (pitú, “food”). ith (“grain”) is from this same root. The present and imperfect stems ith- and eth- are back-formed from the verbal noun. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈi.θʲəðʲ/ (Blasse) [ˈi.θʲɪðʲ] (Griffith) [ˈi.θʲɨðʲ] === Verb === ithid (verbal noun ithe) to eat c. 800–825, Diarmait, Milan Glosses on the Psalms, published in Thesaurus Palaeohibernicus (reprinted 1987, Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies), edited and with translations by Whitley Stokes and John Strachan, vol.
