(In the latter case, /s/ may occur regionally or idiolectally in individual words.) Etymology 1 From de gmh -sen, byform of gmh -ezzen -(ez)zen, from de goh -ezzen, goh -azzen, from de gmw-pro *-attjan, from de gem-pro *-atjaną. In some cases merged with unrelated goh -isōn, from gem-pro *-isōną. Modern formations often interact with the nominal suffix de -s in such a way that it is impossible to say whether the derivation is denominal or deverbal (e.g. de stuppen > de Stups > de stupsen or de stuppen > de stupsen > de Stups). Suffix de suffix verb-forming suffixes Verbal suffix that expresses an action being intensified or stretched by iteration. Alternative forms de -zen -schen Derived terms de Etymology 2 From de gml -sen -(e)sen, contraction of gml hûs -hûsen. Thus a byform of de -hausen, which occurs in the same areas in seemingly random variation. Compare de -trop -trop, -trup, another Low German contraction that has often survived unaltered. Suffix de suffix Placename suffix found in northern Germany.
