ísť

Etymology
, from. Cognate with 🇨🇬,, and 🇨🇬. Probably, the infinitive was reshaped after (to sit).

Verb

 * 1) to go
 * 2) to walk

Usage notes

 * When a prefix ending with a vowel is attached to ísť, the initial í- changes to j- and the final vowel often becomes long or diphthongised, e.g. in nejsť (the negative form),, , , etc. If the prefix ends with -i, the initial vowel is completely assimilated: ( + ísť).
 * The l-participle (used for forming the past and the conditional) has two completely interchangable forms: 1), , , or 2) , , , . Compounds of ísť use the shorter form with the short form of the prefix (e.g.  < ).
