It Westerlauwer Frysk hat hjir _hikke_ (foar Hollânsk _hek_) en
_hage_  (H _heg_).

Dat moat wêze: _tsjerke_. De foarm sûnder einichste -e komt bygelyks yn
de tongslach fan Skiermûntseach foar as _tjark_.

, 'lutse / luke'
> = 'to pull' (same word origin as 'luck' and 'lurk'),

By dit lêste wol ik wat fraachtekens sette: it Hollânske '-luiken' yn
_oogluikend_
is der wol mei besibbe mar 'lurk' is earder besibbe oan WF _loere_ en it
dêrfan
ôflate tiidwurd _luorkje_ (< lu:r + k + je, dêr't -k- in bekind
"ferlytsjend" ynfiks is) dat
der kwa foarm alheel mei lykstimt. Dit tiidwurd komt yn it Hollânsk ek as
_loeren_ foar
(dúdlik in lienwurd út in Saksyskeof Fryske fariëtiet), en ek yn it
Nederdútsk.
It hat wolris earder bepraat west, hjir op 'e list.
"luck" hat neffens myn etymologyske wurdboeken ek gjin ferbân mei _lûke_, dy
stam
hat mei *lugh (bûge) te krijen, mien ik. Ek H._lokken_ hat der neat mei te
krijen; dit
is nammers yn it Frysk _lokje_.
It Ingelske "lock" hat hjir wol mei te krijen, dit is in ablautfariant fan
_lûke_.
(= is wer Dútsk Loch, mar dit is wer in oar ferhaal)

 'eltse' = 'each'.

Lykas sein, dit is gâns algemiener om dy tiid hinne. De Saksen hiene it
fenomeen ek,
en oare stammen ek. It is wol heel ienfâldich de Friezen hjir ferantwurdlik
foar te hâlden..
De sitewaasje wie doe gâns komplekser.
Ek tusken de ferskillende Fryske dialekten bestiet ferskil yn mjitte fan
palatalisaasje fan de k-. It WF hat dit noch in ekstra kear dien, op 'e ein
fan 'e midsieuwen. Doe feroare
"makia" yn notiids _meitsje_, bygelyks. Dizze gefallen fynst just net yn it
Ingelsk, dy wiene
die al te fier útinoar groeid.
