Reconstruction:Proto-Germanic/baitraz
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Proto-Germanic
[edit ]Etymology
[edit ]From pre-Germanic *bhoydrós. The o-grade is unexpected, as ro-stems usually take the zero-grade, as is clearly the case in regular *bitraz . This could theoretically point to a lost o-grade strong verb, in which case this adjective would be equivalent to *baitaną + *-raz .[1] Compare the similarly formed *haidraz , *staigraz . See also the related *baitilaz .
