беꙁдъжгьѥ
Old Novgorodian
editAlternative forms
edit- беꙁдъжгиѥ (beźdŭźgije)
Etymology
editInherited from Proto-Slavic *bezdъždžьje, ultimately from *dъ̀ždžь (“rain”) with Old Pskovian reflex *zdj > жг (źg) in comparison with the typical Eastern Old Novgorodian *zdj > *ждж (*ždž).[1] By surface analysis, беꙁ (beź, “without”) + дъжгь (dŭźgĭ, “rain”) + -ьѥ (-ĭje). First attested in the mid 11th century ‒ mid 12th century, and later exactly from 1124. Cognate with Old Ruthenian бездожджьє (bezdoždžʹje), Old Church Slavonic бездъждиѥ (bezdŭždije).
