Reconstruction talk:Proto-Germanic/andawurdijaną

Two forms
I think we're dealing with two separate verbs here and not just one. In Middle Dutch, there is both and, and Old English  reflects the former as well. It's also telling that the OE verb belongs to class 2. So it looks like there's also a class 2. —Rua (mew) 22:09, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree; I was supposed to add parentheses around the OE and ME terms (as OE -ian descends from PGmc -ōną) and go on to reconstruct the PGMc term at some point --Theudariks (talk) 22:12, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I think perhaps the OFs term could be a descendant of *andawerdōną too, based on its descendands --Theudariks (talk) 22:16, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but be careful. Frisian has -e- as the regular outcome of umlauted -u-, so it doesn't say much.
 * Also, it appears that the prefix of the second was, judging by Gothic . I'm not sure what to make of the voiceless Verner alternant of Gothic. —Rua (mew) 22:18, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Old Dutch also has, and apparently a verb . These may be yet another ablaut variant. It gets more complicated the more I find. —Rua (mew) 22:29, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
