hatizōn
A Gothic weak verb meaning be angry with or at someone, represented by exactly one verified corpus token: present active second-person plural hatizoþ in John 7:23. Project Wulfila and Streitberg align the form with Greek χολᾶτε in the question “are you angry at me?” and analyze the verb with a dative object. The University of Texas derivational grammar builds class-II hatizōn on the consonantal stem hatiz- of hatis “hatred” or “wrath”; Wright independently lists it as a class-II weak verb. The macronized infinitive is a scholarly citation form, while the manuscript writes only the inflected token without a vowel-length mark. The route continues through the reviewed Germanic noun family and a qualified Indo-European comparison, then stops. One corpus token cannot establish spoken rarity, first use, a complete semantic range, exact pronunciation, or one prehistoric essence.
“One Gothic anger verb survives in one question: hatizoþ, “are you angry at me?” The manuscript writes neither the normalized infinitive hatizōn nor its editorial macron, and the current corpus finds no second token.”OPEN COMPLETE WORD DOSSIER ↗

Gothic · Gothic textual traditionhatishatred, anger, or wrath
- SOUND CHANGE
- The consonantal stem hatiz- of hatis receives the class-II weak-verb formation represented by the citation form hatizōn and the written second-person plural hatizoþ. The long ō is an editorial phonological representation, not a separate manuscript letter.
- SEMANTIC CHANGE
- A noun for hatred, wrath, or anger supplies a verb whose one surviving context means be angry with or at someone. One token does not establish whether the verb ever carried the noun’s entire semantic range.
- SCHOLAR
- Todd B. Krause · Jonathan Slocum · Joseph Wright · Wilhelm Streitberg · Project Wulfila editors
- CONFIDENCE
- established — Independent grammars publish the denominative class-II formation, and the corpus directly supplies one inflected token. The exact historical moment of derivation is not witnessed.
- CHRONOLOGY
- A Gothic lexical derivation represented in the fourth-century translation tradition and an early-sixth-century manuscript.
