Proto-Germanic

Etymology

An unetymological iterative to *skakaną (to shake). Due to the frequency of iteratives appearing with zero-grade -u- and o-grade -a-, these vowels began to be used to create iteratives to roots where they were unwarranted.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈskuk.kɔː.nɑ̃/

Verb

*skukkōną

  1. to shake, move swiftly

Inflection

The original paradigm consisted of two stem variants, singular *skukk- against non-sinular *skug-.
