Etymology of HOOI

The word hooi is derived from the Middle Dutch word hoy, which was originally borrowed from Old French foi or fois. The Old French term further descended from the Latin word fenum, meaning hay. The evolution of this word can also be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European root *ghas-, which carries the sense of to chew, eat. Over time, with changes in spelling and pronunciation, hooi emerged as the modern Dutch word for hay.
