Bleeding

[r. joe campbell]

Nocnihuan,

   I have a morphological doubt about words involving bleeding (self and
otherwise).  I have a hypothesis, but no supporting evidence for it.

Could someone shed some light on the 'i' in "m[o]izoya" 'he bled himself"?
If it matches my hypothesis, I'll call it 'supporting' and say thank you.

Best regards,

Joe
