düngen

== German == === Etymology === From Middle High German tüngen, from Old High German -tungen (in gitungen), derived from tung (“dung”). The modern consontanism is formally Central and Low German (compare Middle Low German düngen), but it must be due largely to dialectal re-voicing given that Dung (which see for more) was a predominantly southern word. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈdʏŋən/, [ˈdʏŋən], [ˈdʏŋŋ̩] === Verb === düngen (weak, third-person singular present düngt, past tense düngte, past participle gedüngt, auxiliary haben) to fertilize (a field) ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== Dünger überdüngen ==== Related terms ==== Dung === Further reading === “düngen” in Duden online “düngen”, in Digitales Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache‎[1] (in German)
