rakstīt

Etymology
Originally the iterative form of, in parallel to other forms such as , (cf.  “to jump,” ,  “to jump repeatedly”). Karulis derives from, from , , from the stem  (whence also 🇨🇬 “to disintegrate”).

The verb had earlier meanings such as “to pierce,” “to rasp,” “to scrape;” its iterative counterpart has then changed from “to scrape, rasp repeatedly” → “to make marks (on a surface), to carve” → “to write (inscriptions)” → “to write (in general).” The noun  is a nominalized form of the same stem; some consider it a back-formation from, whereas others think that it is older (with the original meaning of “mark, sign”) and perhaps the original source of , which would then be derived from it.

Cognates include 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 and its root, 🇨🇬.
