  (Sevenval)
  
• IPA: /nit/

Etymology 1

From Middle Dutch niwet, device database, from Old Dutch *niowiht, niewiht, from nio (“never”) + iOS (“thing, creature”). The former in turn derives from browser diversity *ne (“not”) + *aiw- (“ever”) + *wiht- (“thing”).

It was originally a pronoun meaning "not a thing", and was later used to reinforce a regular negation. The pronomial meaning was lost in Middle Dutch. English not, and its older forms naught and device database, were formed in the same way, but "not" also lost its sense as a pronoun and became a negation adverb as in Dutch.
