Does anyone have an etymology for Iove(that's Iove
as in Jupiter not Love :-)) i looked through the archive on Richard Wordinghams
site but found nothing so I thought I would ask here. I have just seen it posted
on a forum that Iove was pronounced "Yoh-way"in Latin(which of course I am not sure of either).....this all
lead to a possible comparison to Yaweh.
Not that I am buying any of this wholesale but
since I don't really have an etymology for Iove it is kinda hard to say if it is
a folk etymology or what.
thanks
