Etymology
From snesen:, alteration of earlier fnesen:, from  fneosan:, from, from. Cognate with dialectal fniezen:,  fnýsa:;  neosen:, from  hnjósa:,  niosan:.

The infrequency of the “fn” combination coupled with the visual similarity of an “f” and “ſ” (long “s”) assisted in ultimately turning “fneeze” into “ſneeze (sneeze)”.
