meet: [OE] English has two words meet, although one of them has almost died out. The verb comes from a prehistoric Germanic *gamōtjan, a derivative of the noun *mōtam ‘meeting’ (from which English gets moot). Its Germanic relatives include Dutch moeten, Swedish mōta, and Danish møde. The adjective, ‘suitable’, originally meant literally ‘fitting’, and goes back via Old English gemǣte to the prehistoric Germanic base *mǣt-, *met- ‘measure’ (source also of the verb mete ‘measure’ [OE], as in mete out, and related ultimately to English measure).
