hobe - Etymological Basque Dictionary-French-Spanish-English
hobe
(Xth c.) Better. Perhaps from hon "good".
(s. X) Mejor. Acaso de hon "bueno".
(Xe s.) Mieux, meilleur. Peut-être de hon "bon".

hoben
Offense, crime, weird action. The etymology lat. offendere has been proposed. But if the initial h- is etymological, it might be better to go back to a stem *hob- < *kob- / gob- with the idea of curved thing. Var. hogen.
Falta, culpa, crimen. Acaso del lat. offendere "molestar". Pero si la h- es etimológica, sería preferible una raíz *hob- de *kob- con idea de corvadura. Var. hogen.
Faute, crime, action perverse. On a proposé comme étymologie le lat. offendere "offenser". Mais si le h- initial est étymologique, il serait préférable d’envisager une racine *hob- < *kob- /gob- avec idée de torsion, de courbure. Var. hogen.
