kolt
Middle Low German
Etymology
From Old Saxon kāld, from Proto-Germanic *kaldaz. Cognate with English cold, Dutch koud, German kalt.
Pronunciation
- Stem vowel: ô²
- (originally) IPA(key): /kɔːlt/ or IPA(key): /kɔlt/
- While the combination /ld/ originally lengthened the vowel in Old Saxon, in several Middle Low German dialects it was treated like a geminate, or had actually become /lː/, and in turn shortened long vowels occurring before it. Further, the vowel was shortened before /lt/ from final obstruent devoicing. Dialects then often began to apply the more common vowel length across all forms.
Adjective
kōlt or kolt (comparative kôlder or kö̂lder, superlative kôldest or kö̂ldest)
