Low German

Etymology

From earlier barsten, from Middle Low German bersten, from Old Saxon brestan, from Proto-Germanic *brestaną, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰres- (“to burst, break, crack, split, separate”). Compare Dutch barsten, German barsten, English burst, Swedish brista. The development of basten from barsten closely mirrors the development of the English verb bust from the equivalent English cognate, burst.

Verb
