köken: Borrowed from Middle Low German nichte, from Old Saxon *nifta, from Proto-Germanic *niftiz. This form replaced High German (obsolete) Niftel in the 17th century. It is based on the Low German shift -ft-→ -cht- (compare Gerücht); hence cognate with Old High German nift, nifta, Dutch nicht, English nift. Related to German Neffe (“nephew”). More at nift, neve.
köken: From Latin nepōtem, from Proto-Italic *nepōts, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *népōts. Compare French neveu, Romanian nepot, Catalan and Occitan nebot, Sicilian niputi and Persian نوه.
I nonni sono gli angeli custodi dei nipoti.
Aveva regalato alla sua nipote un abito nuovo per l'evento.
