donn

Etymology
From, from , northern variant of , from.

Verb

 * 1)  to do

Usage notes

 * The past participle has an open vowel, either long or short, but never as in the infinitive.
 * The paraphrastic preterite can be used with all verbs except auxiliaries and modals. It is preferred especially with regular verbs, though the regular preterite does remain functional in Ripuarian (unlike Moselle Franconian); thus alternatively: As in colloquial Standard German the preterite as such is restricted semantically and syntactically, the past being predominantly expressed by the perfect tense.
