ryngenとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Inherited from 古期英語 hrinġan (weak class 1), from Proto-West Germanic *hringijan, from Proto-Germanic *hringijaną.

The pronunciation with /ɡ/ is due to levelling from the 古期英語 past tense hringde, while the inflection as a strong class 3 verb is from analogy with verbs such as singen and spryngen.

• IPA: /ˈrinɡən/, /ˈriːnɡən/

使用する際の注意点

• This verb is mostly a strong verb in Middle English; the etymological weak inflection is retained in Laȝamon's Brut (Cotton Caligula A.9) and may have persisted in some varieties as ringed is amply attested in Early Modern English, though this could be a reinnovation.
