Carnian

Alternative forms

• enti (Lower, Kvarner)
• ener, enere (Southwestern Central), (Kvarner)

Etymology

Inherited from Old Carnian enti, from Proto-Slavic *ęti. The expected prothetic /j/ has never been attested, likely in analogy with the perfective zent and other prefixed forms lacking it. Cognate with Slovene jeti (“to begin”), Polish jąć (“to seize”).

Pronunciation

• (Standard) IPA: [ɛ̂nt]
  • (1sg present indicative) IPA: [ɛ̂ːnɛm]
• (Carinthian) IPA: [ɛ̃̂t]

Verb

ent impf (perfective zent)

1. (transitive) to take

   Kei baṡ eu diens? ― What will you be taking today?

   Eni mojà rancà. ― Take my hand.

Usage notes

The present stem en- replaced the earlier em- in analogy with other verbs ending in *-ęti.
