Old English
Etymology
From Proto-Germanic *fehtaną. Cognate with Old Frisian fiuhta, Old Saxon fehtan, Dutch vechten, Old High German fehtan (German fechten). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *peḱ-.
Pronunciation
- (deprecated use of
|lang=parameter) IPA(key): /ˈfeo̯htɑn/, [ˈfeo̯xtɑn]
Verb
feohtan
Usage notes
- Feohtan was generally not used transitively, as in hēo feaht þone dracan ("she fought the dragon"). Instead it was used with a preposition such as on, onġeġn, or wiþ, all meaning "against": hēo feaht wiþ þone dracan (literally "she fought against the dragon").
