rennan

Bavarian[edit]

From a merger of transitive / causative Old High German rennan (“to make something run or flow”) (from Proto-Germanic *rannijaną), and intransitive Old High German rinnan (“to run or flow”) (from Proto-Germanic *rinnaną). A similar development of merging roots can be seen in Dutch rennen and English run as well. See also German rennen.
