Etymology 1

From Middle English hat, from Old English hætt, from Proto-Germanic *hattuz (“hat”), perhaps from a late PIE root Proto-Indo-European *kedʰ- (“to guard, cover, care for, protect”) or wanderwort.

Cognate with North Frisian and Danish hat (“hat”), Norwegian Bokmål, Norwegian Nynorsk, and Swedish hatt (“hat”), Icelandic hattur (“hat”), Finnish hattu (“hat”), Latin cassis (“helmet”), Lithuanian kudas (“bird's crest or tuft”), Avestan 𐬑𐬀𐬊𐬛𐬀 (xaoda, “hat”), Persian خود (xud, “helmet”), Welsh cadw (“to provide for, ensure”). Compare also hood.

Verb sense 4 derives from a common English Wikipedia template used to collapse disruptive discussions, {{Hidden archive top}}, abbreviated as {{hat}}.

        North Frisian

        Etymology

        From Old Frisian hit.

        Pronoun

        hat

        1. (Föhr-Amrum, Mooring, Sylt) it (third-person singular neuter personal pronoun)
        2. (Föhr-Amrum) she (third-person singular feminine personal pronoun)

        Usage notes

        • In Mooring and Sylt Frisian, this form is now rarely used. It is replaced with et (unstressed) or the demonstrative dåt, dit (stressed).
        • On Föhr and Amrum, hat is chiefly used of female persons. In the original neuter sense it is similarly replaced with at and det.
