Catalan

Etymology

From Old Catalan trigar, from Latin trīcārī (dally, shuffle, be evasive). Compare Occitan trigar, French tricher (to cheat).

Pronunciation

Verb

trigar (first-person singular present trigo, first-person singular preterite triguí, past participle trigat)

  1. (intransitive) to take a long time, to be long
  2. (intransitive) to be late
  3. (transitive) to take (a certain amount of time)

Usage notes

The main difference between trigar and durar when used transitively is that the former signifies some event that one has to wait for, while the latter signifies an ongoing action.
