Olla fogala[edit]

From *bi- +‎ *ginnaną, although the latter has no attested descendants.
What about hagunnan from Hebban olla vogala nestas hagunnan? This surely has to be some kind of descendant of the word *ginnaną (probable with another prefix)? Thadh (talk) 17:05, 19 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

According to ONW, it's aginnan, although I don't really know of any other instances in Old Dutch with that prefix. —Rua (mew) 17:19, 19 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Even so, the verb is *a + *ginnan (possibly some variant of modern er-, unstressed ur-/or- and proto-germanic *uz-) which would mean the word ginnaną has a recorded descendant. Thadh (talk) 17:44, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Not a recorded descendant, but rather a recorded descendant of a derived term. —Rua (mew) 17:47, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
Shouldn't it then be given next to 𐌳𐌿𐌲𐌹𐌽𐌽𐌰𐌽 in the etymology section? ONW confirms my previous statement that the term derives from *uz + *ginnaną. Thadh (talk) 12:12, 28 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
