Middle Annerish

Etymology

Per Bernthaler from Germanic *haitaną with influence from Goidelic caí ("laments"); if so, doublet of hét.

Pronunciation

(Annerish) IPA: /kˠɑːsˠ/ [kʰɑˑs]

Verb

càs (runic:ᚷᚭᛌ)

1. (intr.) To be called; one's name is … (followed by ᴠᴏᴄ. and no pronouns!)

   Only ɪᴍᴘᴇʀꜰ. (ɴᴀʀ.) and ᴘʀᴇᴛ. forms are attested in the older language:

   cechat or cıchet

   cá (cà), cáım, cáıdí

ɴ.ʙ.

Coined in the first edition of the Bésgnae Béırle by analogy with bás;
Since both ᴘʀᴇᴛ. and ꜰᴜᴛ. can be formed by reduplication, ᴘᴀss. ɪʀʀ. cıcher and ᴄᴏɴᴅ. cıchır are given by the institution but seldom seen in practice.
