Proto-West Germanic
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Uncertain, it is speculated to be formed from *þrį̄hwan a doublet of *þringwan (“to press, push”), which preserved the -h- that was replaced with Verner alternant -g- in the latter verb. The form *þrį̄hwan would have been reinterpreted as a class 1 strong verb, which would have led to the creation of this secondary causative with -ai-.
Verb
