Talk:подержанный

Pre-reform declension of "подержанный"

Isn't the pre-reform spelling "подѣржанный"? It's not attested, it must be a new sense but the pre-reform spelling of держа́ть (deržátʹ) seems "дѣржать". --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 01:52, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

It's actually also "держать". google books:"въ" "держать" gets way more hits than google books:"въ" "дѣржать" (the "въ" is just there to make sure it only finds the old orthography). Same thing with google books:"въ" "подержанный" and google books:"въ" "подѣржанный". There was a lot of confusion even back then between "ѣ" and "е", which is why you often find these misspellings. --WikiTiki89 01:58, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

Okey, thanks, I'm aware of the "ѣ"/"е" confusion but I remembered "самодѣржавіе", which must be also a misspelling. --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 02:03, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
