ORIGIN Old English b?on, an irregular and defective verb, whose full conjugation derives from several originally distinct verbs. The forms am and is are from an Indo-European root shared by Latin sum and est. The forms was and were are from an Indo-European root meaning ‘remain.’ The forms be and been are from an Indo-European root shared by Latin fui ‘I was,’ fio ‘I become’ and Greek phuein ‘bring forth, cause to grow.’ The origin of are is uncertain.
usage: For a discussion of whether it is correct to say that must be he at the door and it is I rather than that must be him at the door and it is me , see usage at personal pronoun.
