Question about splitting Dutch etymologies
From User talk:Rua
Should verb forms that are identical to the verb stem and nouns that are identical to the stem and derive from the same verb be grouped under the same etymology or should they be split (supposing that the noun isn't inherited or borrowed from another language, like tover)?
They should be split, because they don't have the same history. One of them was surely formed from the other at some point, and this is worth mentioning. If one of them can be traced back to, say, Proto-Germanic or Proto-Indo-European, that certainly doesn't necessarily apply to the other.
Non-lemmas should always go in their own etymology section marked with {{nonlemma}}, but several can be grouped together under that etymology regardless of origins.
