gataid

Etymology
A denominative verb from.

There is a hypothesis since Thurneysen and Pedersen that the augmented forms of this verb were formed by a suppletive compound verb formation derived from +, and as such the conjugations of that formation are subsumed under this entry, instead of DIL's lemma. McCone believed that this hypothesis is "strong, but not proven". However, a regular perfect passive, ro·gatta, is attested in the Táin Bó Fraích.

Verb

 * 1) to take away, to remove
 * 2) to steal
