In the forms with stem time- (er timet, er timete, er hatte getimet or getimed) the e often is silent (as in timet, timete, getimet) but sometimes it's not (as in timen). As with other verbs of English origin where ⟨a⟩, ⟨i⟩ correspond to [ɛɪ̯], [aɪ̯], the conjugated forms commonly (but unofficially) retain the -e- (as in er *timet, sie *timete etc.). German verbs borrowed from English can optionally form the past participle (Partizip II) in -ed in two cases The English verb ends in a silent ⟨e⟩: English like → German liken → geliked (previously only gelikt) The verb's past participle is usually not inflected: English relax → German relaxen → relaxed (previously only relaxt) But -ed- is not permitted when the participle is inflected, thus: meine gelikten Bilder (not meine *gelikeden Bilder) ein relaxter Abend (not ein *relaxeder Abend) ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== Timen, Timer, Timung timend, getimt ==== Related terms ==== Timer m Timing n === References === === Further reading === “timen” in Digitales Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache == Middle English == === Etymology 1 === ==== Verb ==== timen (Early Middle English, Norfolk) alternative form of temen (“to give birth, to support”) === Etymology 2 === ==== Verb ==== timen (Early Middle English, Norfolk) alternative form of tymen (“to occur”) == Norwegian Bokmål == === Noun === timen m sg definite singular of time == Norwegian Nynorsk == === Noun === timen m sg definite singular of time == Spanish == === Verb === timen inflection of timar: third-person plural present subjunctive third-person plural imperative
