köken: Learned borrowing from Koine Greek μεσολαβῶ (mesolabô, “to catch in the middle, to intercept”), from Ancient Greek μεσολαβέω (mesolabéō, “to seize; to interrupt”).
With dialectal unrounding from eräugnen, itself with intrusive -n- from eräugen, from Middle High German eröugen, from Old High German irougen (“to show”). Es ereignet sich is thus “it shows itself”. Equivalent to er- + Auge + -en.
