Verb edit
brenge (third-person singular present brengk or brengt, past tense braht or braach or braacht, past participle jebraht or jebraach or gebraacht)
- (most dialects) to bring; to take something somewhere
- Brengs de dat evvens en de Köch? Dat wör leev von dir.
- Would you just take this to the kitchen? That would be sweet of you.
Usage notes edit
- The forms brengk; braht, braach; jebraht, jebraach are Ripuarian, while brengt; braacht; gebraacht are Moselle Franconian. In both groups, the past participle may also occur without the prefix, thus being the same as the past tense.
- The 2nd and 3rd persons singular of the present, chiefly in Ripuarian, may exhibit a vowel change /ɛ/ → /e/, which is not reflected in spelling.
