traire

== French == === Etymology === Inherited from Old French traire, treire (“to pull”), from Early Medieval Latin tragō, from Latin trahere (“to pull”). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /tʁɛʁ/ Rhymes: -ɛʁ === Verb === traire (transitive) to milk (a cow, etc) ==== Conjugation ==== This verb traditionally has no past historic or imperfect subjunctive. They would be formed on a -tray- root: *je trayis, *que nous trayissions etc. Forms using the 'a' endings of verbs in -er are now used when there is an unavoidable need to use these forms. The root -trais- was used instead of -tray- in the 18th century, and remains in Swiss and Savoy dialects. ==== Related terms ==== === Further reading === “traire”, in Trésor de la langue française informatisé [Digitized Treasury of the French Language], 2012 === Anagrams === errait, retira, terrai, tirera, triera == Middle French == === Etymology === From Old French traire. === Verb === traire to fire (an arrow) ==== Descendants ==== French: traire == Norman == === Etymology === From Old French traire, from Early Medieval Latin tragō Latin trahō (“I pull”). === Verb === traire to pull to milk ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Related terms ==== attraire estraire soutraire == Occitan == === Etymology === From Old Occitan traire, from Early Medieval Latin tragō, from Latin trahere (“to drag, extract, trail”). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈtɾaj.ɾe/ === Verb === traire to pull, drag == Old French == === Alternative forms === treire, trere === Etymology === From Early Medieval Latin tragō, from Classical Latin trahō (“I pull”). === Verb === traire to pull (chiefly of a weapon) to draw; to unsheathe to pull out (extract by pulling); to remove (by pulling) ==== Conjugation ==== This verb conjugates as a third-group verb.
