As oanfolling: yn it Frysk bestiet dit wurd a^l, mar net ru^nom yn
alheel
deselde foarm of betsjutting.
Byg. WF toevje (related to "teuven", vowel is suspect though:
[tu:vje],where
from other dialects, sjuch letter, one would expect unrounded forms...):
to wait (yn it toevjen lizze: Dutch "op sterven liggen"), to stay (some
place)= verblieven(ND) or ferbliuwe (WF).
Seeltersk: teeuwe AND wachtje (yn subtiel ferskillende betsjuttings: it
twadde
is mear "ferwachtsje"/expect, it earste "wachtsje op", wait for)
Eila^nnoardfrysk: So"lring _teev_, Fering-Amring _teew_, Halunder
_teow_.
Festewa^lnoardfrysk: Mooring _ta"iwe_,  Wiedingharde _teewe_,
Hoolmer Freesch _teewe_, Hoorninger Fra"isch _ta"iwe_ (both
Nordergoesharde).
Hjir kinne wy dus feilich u'tgean fan Aldfrysk *te:va < Aldgermaansk *
to:vian.

It wurd liket dus yn it Nederdu'tsk fan Ostfriesland him net hanthavenje
kind te hewwen..

Groetnis,

Henno Brandsma
