Creation and Usage Notes

I had to use this verb in the perfect recently, and I looked at the perfect stem, and thought, "That can't be right…" We've gotten to the point where I now come to this site to check to see if there are any errors in my own work. In this case, I guess there isn't, but the form has to be at least slightly irregular, going from [laodi-] to [laːet-]. I'd say the [d] was elided, leaving the three vowel cluster, but then why the geminate [tt]? Surely the first [t] comes from the old [d]. Must have been some kind of metathesis... An odd bird, this one. -David J. Peterson 10:56, 10 June 2024 (PDT)
