    Category:Luxembourgish terms with usage examples#DIR

Etymology 2

From Old High GermanCategory:Luxembourgish terms derived from Old High German#DIR ir. The d- is through unetymological segmentation of the ending -t of a preceding verb (*stitt ir*stiddirstitt dir). This development was assisted by a parallelism with the 1st person, in which the dative singular mir is also the nominative plural (this latter development occurred for a similar reason, but was earlier and is widespread throughout High German).
