shoot

shoot: [OE] Like sheet, shout, shut, and perhaps skit [15], shoot goes back ultimately to the prehistoric Germanic base *skeut-, *skaut-, *skut- ‘project’. This formed the basis of a verb *skeutan, which evolved into German schiessen, Dutch schieten, Swedish skjuta, and Danish skyde as well as English shoot. The noun shot comes from the same source.
=> sheet, shot, shout, shut
