Proto-Norse
Etymology
From gmq-pro gem-pro *-anaz, the ending of all past participles of strong verbs. The shift of *-an- to -in- can also be seen gmq-pro ᛗᛁᚾᛁᚾᛟ from gem-pro *mīnanǭ. For more information see Ringe 2014, pages 18-20.
Suffix
gmq-pro suffix adjectives past participles
Denotes the past participle form of a strong verb.
Usage notes
This suffix causes a-umlaut in Old Norse (e.g. in non brotinn broken, from gem-pro *breutaną *brutanaz), and should thus have done so already in Proto-Norse (cf. gmq-pro ᚺᛟᚱᚾᚨ horn from gem-pro *hurną). However, due to the small corpus, no instance of this is attested.
