Etymology

Inherited from Latin vīgintī. Originally contracted to a nearly pan-Romance *vintī, which yielded *yintsi, the initial syllable yi- was seemingly duplicated into yiyints (note the initial stress). The form yinghits arose by metathesis of the -n-.

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /ˈɣinɡits/, [ˈʝiŋʲɡʲit͡sʲ]
  • Hyphenation: yin‧ghits
