docuirethar

== Old Irish == === Etymology === From to- +‎ ·cuirethar, prototonic form of fo·ceird. The perfective forms are from to- + ro- + Proto-Celtic *layeti. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /d̪oˈku.ɾʲə.θəɾ/ (Blasse) [d̪oˈku.ɾʲe.θaɾ] (Griffith) [d̪oˈku.ɾʲə.θəɾ] === Verb === do·cuirethar (verbal noun tochor or tochuiriud) to put, to place to throw, to cast to invite For quotations using this term, see Citations:docuirethar. ==== Inflection ==== This verb conjugated differently depending on the sense. For meanings related to “put” or “throw”, this term was highly suppletive, with a perfective formation in underlying to- + ro- + ·lá and a future formation directly suppleted from fo·ceird. It was also defective, as personal conjugations outside of the third person were almost non-existent. On the other hand, when meaning “invite”, the verb was not defective and lacked suppletion. It also called for a different verbal noun, tochuiriud, instead of tochor. ==== Descendants ==== Most descendants of this verb eventually lost all the original Old Irish senses, gaining a meaning "to happen", especially in the perfect. The original senses were taken over by Middle Irish cuirid. Middle Irish: tochraid, tachraid Irish: tachar (“putting, placing”, noun) (originally verbal noun) Scottish Gaelic: tachair Manx: taghyr ⇒ Middle Irish: do·rala, tarla (from perfect) Irish: tarlaigh Scottish Gaelic: thàrladh, tàrlaidh === Mutation === === Further reading === Gregory Toner, Sharon Arbuthnot, Máire Ní Mhaonaigh, Marie-Luise Theuerkauf, Dagmar Wodtko, editors (2019), “do·cuirethar”, in eDIL: Electronic Dictionary of the Irish Language
