Hallo,
In het West-Vlaams gebruiken we regelmatig de woorden
"reis/reize/reizekens/reizereize". Misschien hebben die woorden wel een
verband.

->reis= reize=  (FR:rez) op gelijke hoogte, vlak,  effen, waterpas,
dicht tegen, boord aan boord.
B.v.:
Ne boôm afzaog'n reize met de grond.
't Waotre stond reize met de straote.
Tweê tafels reize stell'n.
En glas vull' tot reize de rand.
De zwolme (D zwaluw) vliegt reize reize (met)  't waotre.

-> reize kan ook "nauwelijks / juist / even" betekenen.
Hij heeft van die medecijne maor reis geproefd.

-> reis kan ook" klaar" betekenen
'k Ben daormee reis.

Groetjes
Luc Vanbrabant
