blèren

== Dutch == === Alternative forms === blaren blarren (obsolete) === Etymology === From Middle Dutch bleren, from Old Dutch *blerien, from Proto-Germanic *blarjaną, probably ultimately onomatopoeic. Cognate with German plärren. The Dutch vowel phoneme /ɛː/ is normally restricted to French borrowings and interjections. It must be due here to the onomatopoeic character of the word or, less probably, to dialectal influence. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈblɛːrə(n)/ Hyphenation: blè‧ren === Verb === blèren (chiefly Netherlands, intransitive, informal) to cry or whine loudly Synonyms: see Thesaurus:huilen Mijn broertje houdt maar niet op met blèren over zijn kapotte laptop. ― My little brother just won't stop whining about his broken laptop. ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Descendants ==== → Papiamentu: blèr
