Vowel length

[edit]

@Leasnam, why do you think the vowel is short? -- Sokkjō 22:58, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Sokkjo swelan is a class 4 verb. There is no long o in that paradigm, only short (geswolen, ppt). You think it's long and this is immediately cognate with Dutch zwoel ? That could be possible. Leasnam (talk) 23:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
