Middle Annerish

Etymology

A suppletive paradigm consisting of three different roots:

  • Past: from the sparcely attested Old Annerishro·fóed⟩, ⟨ros·foéḋ⟩ (with infixed pronoun -s-), seemingly from *edaną, though cf.: possibly original ⟨ro·foír⟩ from *fra-wēzi-.

Pronunciation

(Annerish) IPA: /biːr͈ʲ/ [biˑɘ̯ɹ]

Verb/ Noun

bírr (runic:‮ᛁᛕ‬ᛁᛧ)

  1. (countable) A table for eating
  2. (+ bıth) To eat, consume as food

Usage notes

A semantically transitive verb with intransitive morphology, which takes a direct object in the genitive after bıth:

  • Roıd myr bıth gıogrann - We had barnacle stew.

As a particle itself, bıth cannot be modified with a possessive particle and requires an emphatic form:

  • Mí ım bírre bıth aíse - I am eating it (lit.: I'm in my eating ᴘᴀʀᴛ. hers).
