Does the Codex Argenteus route map the spread of hatan?

No. It maps custody of the two directly inspected evidence objects. The codex traveled through Werden, Prague, Stockholm, Holland, and Uppsala long after Gothic ceased to be a living vernacular in those places.

WORD UNDER REVIEWDISPUTE 408

hatan

/ˈha.tan/ · Gothic class-III weak-verb lemma

A Gothic weak verb conventionally glossed hate, represented by exactly two currently reported corpus tokens: hatandane in Luke 1:71 and hatandans in Luke 6:27. Both are present participles; no surviving token writes the normalized infinitive. Their translation behavior defeats a one-word gloss: Luke 1 uses fijandam for enemies and hatandane for those hating, while Luke 6 uses hatandans for enemies and fijandam for those hating. Project Wulfila keeps class-III hatan separate from class-I hatjan, Braune calls the forms conjugational fluctuation, Orel publishes a reconstructed class-III alternation, and Sturtevant argues that the hatan shape may instead be a specifically Gothic secondary formation.

LEGACY SOURCE SUMMARY

RESOLUTION NOTE

Every post-Ravenna journey note explicitly labels manuscript custody rather than lexical diffusion.
