Forms: 1900s– Nesite, 1900s– Nésite.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French Nésite.
Etymology: < French Nésite (B. Hrozný 1929: see below) < Nesa , the name of an ancient Hittite city in Asia Minor (Hittite Nešaš , probably the same as Assyrian Kaneš (see Kanesian n.); called in modern Turkish Kültepe , lit. ‘hill of ashes’) + -ite -ite suffix1, after Hittite našili language of Nesa, nešumnili language of those of Nesa.1929 B. Hrozný in Archiv Orientální (Prague) 1 296 Les Nêsites sont donc en effet les fondateurs du grand empire hittite..La langue hittite doit donc être nommée..la langue nésite.
1. A name given to the official language used in Hittite documents; = Kanesian n.The meaning of našili and nešumnili in Hittite texts has been disputed, but the view of Hrozný (see source cited in etymological note above, and 1931 in Jrnl. Asiatique 218 318–19) is now generally accepted, i.e. that the words relate to the former Hittite capital Nešaš (or Nesa) and designate the Indo-European Hittite aristocracy and its language (see also quot. 1954).
