Etymology
The finite forms come from the Proto-Basque reconstructed form *edin.[1]
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /edin/, [e̞.ð̞ĩn]
Verb
edin (no non-finite forms)
- (auxiliary, linguistics) Hypothetical citation form of the intransitive aorist auxiliary.
Usage notes
- The form *edin is only used for the sake of identifying this auxiliary in linguistics literature. In normal use, only the finite forms are used.
- It is the aorist equivalent of the verb izan (“to be”). While both verbs have full conjugations, the most common use of edin is to replace the potential forms of izan, which are seen as archaic/literary.
- Etor zarateke. (izan) ― You can come.
- Etor zaitezke. (edin) ― You can come.
- It is also used in the subjunctive constructions with the short stem, although this structure is also more common in literature than in colloquial speech:
- Nahiago dut etor zaitezen. ― I prefer that you come.
- The forms of this verb are listed together with the izan auxiliary forms, as in most general use dictionaries.
