​ Heu, n., ‘hay,’ from MidHG. höu, hou, houwe, n., ‘hay, grass,’ OHG. hęwi, houwi (prop. nom. hęwi, gen. houwes, dat. houwe), n., ‘hay.’ Comp. Goth. hawi (gen. haujis), n., ‘hay, grass’ (with regard to the change of Goth. j into OHG. w and the consequent absence of mutation, see Frau, Au, Gau, &c.; in earlier ModHG. the unmutated form Hau is still retained); OSax. houwi, AS. hêg, hîg (with g for Goth. j as usual), n., MidE. hei, E. hay, OIc. hey, n., ‘hay’; common Teut. hauja- (in the Goth. stem). Apparently from the root hau (see hauen), with the suffix -ja-, Heu, meaning ‘that which is to be cut.’ There is less probability of its being connected with Gr. πόα (Ion. ποίην), ‘grass,’ from ποβίη, κβοξίη (Teut. h equal to Gr. τ for κε, both from Aryan k, as in ἵππος, equal to Lat. equus, Gr. ἕκεσθαι, equal to Lat. sequi).

​ Heuschrecke, f., from the equiv. MidHG. höuschrëcke, m., OHG. hęwi-skrëkko, m., ‘grasshopper,’ lit. ‘hay-jumper’ (see Schrecken). A distinctly G. term; comp. Du. sprinkhaan, AS. gœrs-hoppa, equiv. to E. grasshopper, AS. also gœrs-stapa, ‘grass-stalker.’ In Goth. occurs an obscure term þramstei, f. (whence OSlov. chrąstŭ, ‘beetle’).

​ Herold, m., ‘herald,’ late MidHG. only (14th cent.), hęralt, hęrolt (also ęrhalt), m., ‘herald’; undoubtedly an OG. military term, which, like a large number of others of the same class (comp. Hader, Kampf), became obsolete at an early period. Herold itself is derived from an OFr. term recorded towards the end of the 13th cent., héralt, ModFr. héraut (comp. Ital. araldo, MidLat. heraldus), which is based, however, upon an OG. *hęriwalto, *hariwaldo, ‘an army official,’ appearing in OSax. as a proper name, Hariold (OIc. Harald). OHG. harên, ‘to praise,’ does not occur in the compound.

​ Hexe, f., ‘witch, hag, sorceress,’ from MidHG. hęcse, f., OHG. hagzissa, hagazussa, hagzus (also hâzus, hâzissa), f., a gloss for furia, striga, eumenis, erinnys; comp. MidDu. haghetisse, ModDu. heks, AS. hœgtesse, f., E. (with the rejection of the apparent termination) hag. The word, which is doubtlessly a compound, has not yet been satisfactorily explained; OHG. hag, AS. hœg, ‘hedge, wood,’ as the first component, seems indubitable. The second part has not been elucidated; some suppose that the prim. meaning of Hexe is ‘forest woman or demon’?. Comp. OHG. holzmuoja, MidHG. holzmuoje, f., ‘forest woman, witch’ (also ‘wood-owl’).
