Talk:entbehren

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

As far as I know, this is a German verb, ontberen in Dutch. To lack and have to do without. Giving it another German verb with a slightly different meaning (to forego) as a definition, seems a bit odd to me.

I found this word on print.google.com as I was researching entsagen. They seemed to have the same meaning, but I didn't delve into it any further. I didn't want to forget entbehren though. I was thinking about just entering it as a stub. I didn't know what was proper so just took a stab at it. Cleanup would be good, if someone can. --Stranger 14:51, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
