driogan

Old Saxon

Etymology

From Proto-West Germanic *dreugan, from Proto-Germanic *dreuganą. Cognate with Gothic 𐌳𐍂𐌹𐌿𐌲𐌰𐌽 (driugan, “do military service”), Old English drēogan and Old Norse drýgja (“perform, practise”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈdriɛ̯ɣɑn/
• Possibly IPA^(key): /ˈdriɔ̯ɣɑn/, but the spelling with ⟨io⟩ is comparably rare, so that it is not certain whether it might merely be a spelling convention copied from Old Dutch and Old High German or indeed an older stage of the language.

Verb

driogan

1. to suffer, undergo, endure
