A few verbs have ''ej'' in 1SG and 3PL (and sometimes in 1PL and 2PL too but unstressed) and ''ø'' in 2SG and 3SG. This is actually the result of ''i-umlaut'' on Latin ''au'' (/aʊ̯/ > */eʏ̯/ > /eɪ̯/) and not a kind of ''u-umlaut''. ''ejðir'' (to hear) is the prototypical example - note also the etymologically related ''iniðir'' (to learn): | |||
:: ''ejðir'' (to hear) < audīre: ''jag ejð'', ''tsu øðir'', ''if øðit'', ''novr ejðymur'', ''vovr ejðitir'', ''if ejðunts'', ''øðitse'' | |||
:: ''iniðir'' (to learn) < inaudīre: ''jag inejð'', ''tsu inøðir'', ''if inøðit'', ''novr iniðymur'', ''vovr iniðitir'', ''if inejðunts'', ''inøðitse'' | |||
