-жинать

Russian

Etymology

From imperfective lengthening of the perfective Proto-Slavic stem *-žьn- (cf. first singular *žьnǫ of *žęti (“to reap”)) + -а́ть (-átʹ). Similar lengthening accounts for the change -о- → -а- in imperfective derivations in -ывать (-yvatʹ) and -ивать (-ivatʹ), e.g.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): [ʐɨˈnatʲ]

Combining form

-жина́ть • (-žinátʹ) impf (perfective -жа́ть)
