'is' comes from Old English.
It has its stem or root in Germanic 'es'.
Its Sanskrit variant is 'asti' and Greek variant is 'esti'

O.E. is, from Gmc. stem *es- (cf. O.H.G., Ger., Goth. ist, O.N. es, er), from PIE *es-ti- (cf. Skt. asti, Gk. esti, L. est, Lith. esti, O.C.S. jesti), from base *es- "to be." O.E. lost the final -t-. See be.
