I'm not entirely sure...
MFaroese actually has "vit". I don't know whether the t
is pronounced but they'd probably spell it "við" if it
wasn't (Faroese also has "vær" in poetry.)
I always assumed the Scandinavian "vi" was a descendant
of "vér" rather than "vit" but I don't have any evidence either way.
Vit vilja tevatn og breyð!
