Sin word derived from which language?
The word "sin" is derived from the Old English word "syn(n)", which in turn is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "*sunjoną". This word is related to the Old Norse word "synd", the Dutch word "zonde", the German word "Sünde", and the Gothic word "sunja". The Proto-Germanic word "*sunjoną" is thought to be derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "*swen-", meaning "to sound" or "to make a noise". This root is also the source of the English word "sound".
