spasirom

Russenorsk

Alternative forms

• spaserom
• spasirum

Etymology

Probably from German spazieren (“to stroll”). May also be derived from Russian pronouciation of spaserom, where the sound e, which by any reason became unstressed and iotated, changed into i (compare to loan words like дельтовидный (djelʹtovidnyj)).

Verb

spasirom

1. to go
