[[vīcus]] m. [[group of houses]], [[village]], [[quarter]], Skt. <b class="b2">veśa-</b> m. [[hous]], esp. [[brothel]]; IE <b class="b2">*u̯óiḱo-s</b> m. Besides in Indo-Ir. and Slav. zero grade and mososyll. Skt. <b class="b2">viś-</b> f., acc. [[viś-am]], Av. <b class="b2">vīs-</b> f., acc. [[vīs-ǝm]], OPers. [[viÞ-am]] [[living]], [[house]] (OIr. esp. [[house of lords]], [[kings]]), [[community]], Slav., e.g. OCS [[vьsь]] f. (<b class="b2">i-</b>st. second.) [[village]], [[field]], [[piece of ground]], Russ. [[vesь]] [[village]], IE <b class="b2">*u̯iḱ-</b> f. Beside these old nouns Indo-Ir. has a verb meaning [[enter]], [[go in]], [[settle]], Skt. <b class="b2">viśáti</b>, Av. [[vīsaiti]], IE <b class="b2">*u̯iḱ-éti</b>. It can be taken as demon. of <b class="b2">*u̯iḱ-</b>'house'; so prop. "come in the house, be (as guest) in the house"? To this verb is connected, first as nom. actionis, IE <b class="b2">*u̯óiḱo-s</b>, prop. "entering, go inside", concret. [[entrance]], [[living]]. Beside it as oxytone nom. agentis Skt. <b class="b2">veśá-</b> m. [[inhabitant]], Av. <b class="b2">vaēsa-</b> m. [[servant]], IE <b class="b2">*u̯oiḱó-s</b> m. Another nomen actionis is Goth. [[weihs]], gen. [[weihs-is]] n. [[village]], which goes back on IE <b class="b2">*u̯éiḱos-</b> n.. -- The formally identical <b class="b3">τὰ οἰκία</b> and Skt. <b class="b2">veśyà-</b> n. [[house]], [[village]] are separate innovations (Schindler, BSL 67, 1972, 32). -- More forms w. rich lit. in WP. 1, 231, Pok. 1131, W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. [[vīcus]] a.
