-зывать

Russian

Etymology

From imperfective lengthening of the Proto-Slavic perfective infinitive stem *-zъv- (from the infinitive *zъvati) + -а́ть (-átʹ). Similar lengthening accounts for the change -о- → -а- in imperfective derivations in -ывать (-yvatʹ) and -ивать (-ivatʹ), e.g.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): [zɨˈvatʲ]

Combining form
