takest

/tˈeɪkɪst/ verb B2

an old word meaning 'you take'

Word Origin Take comes from Old Norse taka, which replaced the Old English niman. The -est is the archaic second-person singular ending, so takest means 'you take.' It's a basic verb of grasping that's formed many compounds: overtake, undertake, mistake, retake. The root is from Proto-Germanic *tēkōną, a sturdy, everyday word.
