"She" originates from Old English hēo, the feminine form of the third-person singular pronoun. Over time, it evolved through Middle English (sche, she) under the influence of Old Norse and other Germanic languages. Unlike many pronouns, "she" does not derive from a compound or affixed structure but is a compact, irreducible unit with ancient roots. Its spelling and pronunciation stabilized in Early Modern English, retaining its core function as a gender-specific referent.
