dobidci

Old Irish

Etymology

A highly suppletive verb; the deuterotonic and prototonic forms of this verb are derived from two unrelated roots. A similar setup is seen in fo·ceird. Both of these roots have been prefixed with dí-.

The deuterotonic stems are of uncertain origin, but it is definitely related to bedg.
The prototonic stems are from Proto-Celtic *borgīti, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰerǵʰ-, and cognate to Welsh bwrw.
