gued (variant spelling)

gout, geot (northeastern Westphalian), goot, gaut (chiefly non-Westphalian)
=== Etymology ===
From Middle Low German gut, a byform (derived from unstressed use) of gôt. This form underlies in most of Westphalian, except northeastern dialects (the forms gout, geot). The diphthong -ue- continues Old Saxon -u- in open syllables, here generalized from the inflected forms.
The vocalism of the comparative is also irregular: biätter requires Old Saxon open -ë- (expected would be *biëter from closed -ẹ-). One proposed explanation is that the underlying Middle Low German bat ~ bet (from Proto-Germanic *batiz) yielded a compromise form bët.
