wääde

== Central Franconian == === Alternative forms === wääre (Moselle Franconian, but in limited use) === Etymology === From Middle High German werden, from Old High German werdan. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈʋɛːdə/ === Verb === wääde (third-person singular present wird or weed, past tense wurd or wood, past participle wurde or jewurde or jewoode) (Ripuarian) to become (Ripuarian) to be; used with past participles to form the passive voice (Ripuarian) will; shall; used with infinitives to form the future tense (which is rather rare, however) ==== Usage notes ==== The forms weed, wood, jewoode are Kölsch. The forms with -r- are used in virtually all other dialects; they may sometimes be spelt wiëd, wued, (je)wuede, indicating the regular vocalization of pre-dental -r-.
