Talk:dzīt

Latest comment: 10 years ago by Neitrāls vārds

So, I decided to split off "to shave." When I was copyediting this before I was not super happy that it's just as a sub-sense of "to chase away" (I'd never made that connection, always thought that they sound the same by coincidence) but now I was looking for some liv etym material and lo and behold it turns out to be a well supported liv (or potentially et) calque. Tēzaurs surprisingly doesn't even mention shaving although in the actual language there is already a full-on semantic split (with dzīt meaning specifically shaving with an electrical device.)
