Skundavisk

Etymology

From Middle Skundavisk vinter, from Old Skundavisk vintar, from Halmisk vintar, vintur, from Proto-Germanic *wintruz.

Pronunciation

IPA: /wɪntɐ/

Noun

winter m. (class 1 or 3a, genitive winters, plural wintere or winters)

  1. winter
    Wi hadden een kåld winter.
    We had a cold winter.

Usage notes

The plural form winters arose by analogy with other words ending in -er (including summer). It's now the most common form though wintere may still be encountered in formal speech.
