Etymology[edit]

Kroonen assumes this strong verb was actually back-formed to the iteratives *drappōną/*drabōną, *druppōną/*drubōną, whereas *drabaną continues the o-grade of the original form. Do we assume such as well, or assume the -p- is a result of contamination? Anglom (talk) 23:34, 13 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
