Etymology
From Old ūbhe ghe [ɠe] meaning "alone". The previously existing first person pronoun e was reduced to schwa and subsequently lost.

Usage Notes
Ghe is ambiguous in number as it can mean "I" and "we". To achieve disambiguation a second ghe is put after the verb (literally meaning "I alone") in the Standard dialect. In the Lower dialect this has resulted in a reduplication for all pronouns to mark singular.
