reic

== Irish == === Etymology === From a conflation of two verb stems: Middle Irish rec(c)aid (“to sell, barter”), from Old Irish rec(c), reic(c) (“selling, bartering”), verbal noun of renaid (“to sell”), and Middle Irish rec(c)aid (“to recite, utter”) from Old English reċċan (“stretch out; narrate”). The common thread is that peddlers and shopkeepers used to advertise their wares for sale by crying out loudly in public. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ɾˠɛc/ === Verb === reic (present analytic reiceann, future analytic reicfidh, verbal noun reic, past participle reicthe) to sell, recommend for sale, barter to recount, narrate to spend lavishly, waste, squander ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== reacaire (“seller; reciter; ranter”) === Noun === reic m (genitive singular reaca, nominative plural reiceanna) verbal noun of reic sale, auction narration waste, lavish spending ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== reacach === References === === Further reading === Dinneen, Patrick S.
