Quite improbable hypotheses by Windisch IF 3, 84, Fick KZ 43, 149, Grošelj Razprave 2, 47 (to Germ., e.g. OWNo. [[nōt]] f. [[big net]], Goth. [[nati]] n. [[Netz]], Lat.

[[netsvis]] (Hammarström Glotta 11, 212 f., Schwyzer 62) is not really remarkable.] -- WP. 1, 777 a. 2, 328, W.-Hofmann s. [[nassa]] a. [[abdōmen]]. Ragot (RPh LXXIV(2000) 276) reminds of the remark by Meillet, Études sur l'étym. et le vocab. 2 (1905) 408f on OCS <b class="b2">nědra</b> [[κόλπος]] which could be from <b class="b2">*ned-</b>.
