ε. south-west midlands early Middle English ha.

ζ. south-west midlands early Middle English ho, early Middle English hoe, early Middle English hu, early Middle English hw.

η. early Middle English þe (transmission error), Middle English he.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Cognate with Old Frisian hia ; for the further etymology see discussion at he pron., n.1, and adj. Compare, with different stem types, Gothic ija , and also Old Dutch sie , sia , Old Saxon sia , Old High German sia : see further discussion at he pron., n.1, and adj. and at hoo pron. and n.The Old English (West Saxon) accusative singular feminine forms hīe , hī are identical to the forms hīe , hī of the Old English (West Saxon) nominative and accusative plural (see hi pron.2), and distinct from the nominative singular feminine form hēo hoo pron. On use of the form hīe in nominative function and the likely causes for this see discussion at hoo pron. The Old English accusative form hīo , hēo , which is attested in Mercian and occasionally elsewhere (see γ. forms), represents an original nominative form, resulting from a partial merger of nominative and accusative forms in the feminine singular (compare discussion at hoo pron. and n.). Forms such as Middle English ho , hoe (see ζ. forms) similarly continue original nominative forms. The distinctive accusative form was gradually replaced by her pron.2 (originally the dative form) as direct object and in use with prepositions which earlier took a complement in the accusative: compare her pron.2 1c, her pron.2 1b.
Obsolete.
The objective case of the third person singular feminine pronoun, corresponding to the subjective hoo pron.: = her pron.2 1, 2a. Also reflexive: = her pron.2 3.

2. Combined (sometimes in contracted form) with a following word Middle English h-, Middle English he-, Middle English hi-, Middle English i-, Middle English y-. See also a pron.
Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.
Etymology: Originally the nominative and accusative plural third person personal pronoun form. Cognate with Old Frisian hia : on the further etymology see discussion at he pron., n.1, and adj. Parallel in inflection are Gothic ijos , and also Old Saxon sia , Old High German sie (masculine), sio (feminine), siu (neuter): see further discussion at he pron., n.1, and adj.Replacement by other forms. See 'em pron. on the tendency for replacement by reflexes of the originally dative forms in all object functions (compare II.), although these were generally in turn replaced by the borrowed form them pron. See they pron. on the pattern of replacement by borrowed forms in subject functions. See a pron. on limited survival of an unstressed variant of this pronoun form as a subject form. Aside from these unstressed forms, the word is attested after the end of the Middle English period only in the highly conservative dialect of Wexford in Ireland in the 18th cent. Form history. Although the Old Frisian and Old English forms appear to be essentially parallel, some details with regard to the interpretation of the different forms found in Old English dialects are uncertain and disputed. Early West Saxon shows two sets of forms, of which the more common is hīe , hī (see Forms 1α and 1γ), beside hēo , hīo (see Forms 1β). West Saxon hēo , hīo apparently represents an original neuter plural form, in which the inflectional ending -u has merged with the vowel of the base to form a diphthong (compare Old High German nominative and accusative neuter plural siu ). However no trace of its original function remains in Old English, which does not distinguish gender in the plural of the third person pronoun. The form hīe probably originally shows a nominative and accusative masculine plural ending -e ( < -æ ; by analogy with the strong adjective ending). In West Saxon, this has perhaps merged with the vowel of the base to form a diphthong īe , of which West Saxon ī would be an expected variant and late West Saxon ȳ an expected reflex. However, it is possible that West Saxon hī reflects a separate development, at least in part, perhaps showing phonological loss (rather than merger) of the inflectional ending -e . The form hī is frequent in late West Saxon; moreover hī is occasionally also found in non-West Saxon dialects. Late West Saxon hig also represents a spelling for hī . Early attestations of hē , a form that is attested already in the mid 10th cent. in the Royal Psalter (see Forms 1δ and compare quot. eOE at sense 1δ. ), probably represent a form of hī laxed in low stress (whereas in later use such forms are more likely to reflect monophthongization of hēo ). The forms corresponding to West Saxon hīe in Anglian are early Mercian hīe , early Northumbrian (runic) hīæ ; however, these Anglian forms are usually assumed to be disyllabic rather than showing a diphthong (if so, perhaps they represent a sequence of two short vowels). Forms corresponding to West Saxon hēo , hīo are also attested in Anglian (later Mercian hēo , hīo ) and Kentish (hīo ). Later Mercian and later Northumbrian show considerable variation in form, apparently reflecting reduction of the vowel or vowels in earlier hīe in low stress and perhaps also unrounding of the second element of the diphthong in hīo . For possible interpretations of the form hieo , see discussion at hoo pron. and n. It has been suggested that the later Northumbrian form hīa (see Forms 1α) is an alteration after þā tho pron.1 For further discussion see R. M. Hogg Gram. Old Eng. (1992) I. §146–7, R. M. Hogg & R. D. Fulk Gram. Old Eng. (2011) II. §5.17(2)–(3), and also A. S. C. Ross in Leeds Stud. in Eng. 4 (1935) 14–23. In Middle English the pronoun survives only in non-northern dialects and the development of the forms largely parallels that of hi pron.1 and hoo pron.; compare discussion at those entries. Although the Old English type hēo , hīo is attested in all relevant dialects (Mercian, West Saxon, and Kentish), it appears to be generally less frequent than hīe and comparable forms, and it is possible that forms such as Middle English hē (see Forms 1δ), ho (see Forms 1ε), and ȝe (see Forms 1ζ), which appear to show the reflex of Old English hēo rather than Old English hīe , are partly due to reinforcement by the model of hoo pron. as well as directly continuing their Old English antecedent. For forms with initial ȝ- (see Forms 1ζ) compare discussion of similar forms at hoo pron. and n. Like hoo pron. and other personal pronouns, the third person plural pronoun also shows forms that reflect reduction of the vowel in low stress; see a pron.
