Meanings

to cause to sparkle, ignite

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *ponk-éye/o-, an o-grade form of root *penk- (‘to sparkle, give off sparks’, only attested in Proto-Germanic, but see Beekes 1996B for other theories). The root-final consonant was likely adopted from the iterative *funkōną (‘to give off sparks, sparkle’). Causative from the verbal complex including *finkaną (‘to sparkle, burn’),*fangijaną (‘to cause to sparkle, ignite’), and *funkōną.
