Olla fogala
[edit]From *bi- + *ginnaną, although the latter has no attested descendants.
What about hagunnan from Hebban olla vogala nestas hagunnan? This surely has to be some kind of descendant of the word *ginnaną (probable with another prefix)? Thadh (talk) 17:05, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
- According to ONW, it's aginnan, although I don't really know of any other instances in Old Dutch with that prefix. —Rua (mew) 17:19, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
- Even so, the verb is *a + *ginnan (possibly some variant of modern er-, unstressed ur-/or- and proto-germanic *uz-) which would mean the word ginnaną has a recorded descendant. Thadh (talk) 17:44, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
- Not a recorded descendant, but rather a recorded descendant of a derived term. —Rua (mew) 17:47, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
