verb · Weak class 1

Meanings

to suffocate, extinguish

Etymology

Probably from a pre-Germanic derivative of Proto-Indo-European *dʰgʷʰey- (‘decline, perish; die out’), perhaps pre-Germanic *dʰgʷʰoy-sk-éye/o-, an o-grade form of the root built on an original *sḱé- inchoative present (Jasanoff 2003; Heidermanns 1993), later remodeled as a Weak class 1 causative. Related to *dwīnaną (‘to dwindle, disappear’).
