The first syllable is spelled with the letter "h" followed by the vowel sound "ɛ". The second syllable is spelled with the letter "e" followed by the consonant sound "nd" and the schwa sound "ə".

The word "hende" is of Old English origin. It evolved from the Old English word "hǣnde", which meant "handy" or "skilled". It is potentially derived from the Old English word "hand", which referred to the human hand. Over time, "hende" gained broader meanings related to being skillful, clever, or dexterous. However, its usage has declined over the years, and it is now considered archaic or obsolete in modern English.
