ñidiar

Asturian

Alternative forms

  • nidiar

Etymology

A verb based ultimately on Latin nitidus, but the precise route is unclear. Synchronically ñidiu (“clear, shiny>”) +‎ -ar (forms verbs) and perhaps recently formed this way. It could also be an inheritance of the Latin nitidāre or Vulgar Latin *nitidiāre, both from nitidus.
