fégaid
Middle Irish
Alternative forms
- féchaid
Etymology
Apparently from Old Irish do·éccai, but with difficulties regarding the second consonant.
However, a compound derivative of this verb, con·fécha (“to scrutinize”), is apparently attested in Old Irish within the Milan glosses as the imperfect form com·fechinn.
