CONTRARIAN TRUTH CLAIMS
RANKED REVEALS THAT CITE THIS SOURCE
Old High German hazzōn is a paradigm fault line, not proof that hate originally meant pursue.
The clean dictionary headword conceals paired ēn and ōn forms: Starling reports hazzēn in the eighth century and hazzōn in the ninth, Duden prints haʒʒēn and haʒʒōn, and the UT reflex index also records hazēn and hazōn. Corpus-wide research confirms that Old High German ēn verbs can show ōn double forms. DWB reports aemulari and insequi alignments that support emulation, following, or hostile pursuit—but Pokorny’s comparative warning is exact: Germanic evidence does not prove that pursue was the root’s basic meaning. The normalized form, the source-reported tokens, the paradigm analysis, and the prehistoric semantic claim are four different evidence layers.

SCHOLARLY DISAGREEMENT
DISPUTE POSITIONS THAT CITE THIS SOURCE
Did Old High German preserve only the ōn form?
No. Duden prints haʒʒēn and haʒʒōn, Starling prints hazzēn and hazzōn, and the UT index adds hazēn and hazōn spellings.
Rows hazēn, hazōn, hazzēn, and hazzōnAdds two consonant-spelling representations to the paired vowel classes.
Is hazzōn the only correct historical spelling?
No. The reviewed references print hazēn, hazōn, hazzēn, hazzōn, haʒʒēn, haʒʒōn, and haʒôn according to their editorial systems and source conventions.
Rows hazēn, hazōn, hazzēn, and hazzōnDisplays four editorial representations.
Can the exact Old High German pronunciation be recovered from the citation forms?
Not from the reviewed records alone. Quantity marks and consonant spellings encode scholarly analyses, but no audio exists and the dossier does not infer one dialect-neutral phonetic realization.
Old High German reflex spellingsProvides orthographic and quantity-marked forms but no phonetic recording.
CANONICAL RELATIONSHIP CLAIMS
EDGES THAT CITE THIS SOURCE
hazzōn → haʒʒēn / haʒʒōn
Old High German → Old High German · paradigm variant
- SOUND
- The quantity-normalized citation form hazzōn selects the ōn member of a source set also printed as hazōn and haʒʒōn; hazzēn, hazēn, and haʒʒēn represent the neighboring ēn member. This edge is paradigm navigation, not a claim that one written form changed directly into the combined display.
- MEANING
- The variants occupy the same reviewed hate, emulation, following, and hostile-pursuit field. The edge does not assign every gloss to every token or prove that the ēn and ōn records were interchangeable in every dialect.
