*guttōną

Runic: ᚷᚢᛏᛟᚾᚨ Pronunciation: /ˈɣut.tɔː.nɑ̃/

verb · Weak class 2

Meanings

  1. to pour
  2. to spawn

Etymology

An iterative verb closely related to the strong verb *geutaną, both ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰewd- (‘to pour’).

Kroonen however, reconstructs a pre-form Proto-Indo-European *gut-néh₂-ti, with an incorporated aorist -t ending in the root. He suggests that strong verb was backformed to the iterative.
