waggon: [16] Waggon was borrowed from Dutch wagen. It has gradually replaced the native English form wain ‘waggon’ [OE]. Both words go back via prehistoric Germanic *wagnaz, *wegnaz to Indo-European *woghnos, *weghnos, a derivative of the base *wogh-, *wegh- ‘carry’ (which also produced English vehicle, way, weigh, etc). => vehicle, vex, wain, wainscot, way, weigh
