Shouldn't the name Harigast be Harigastiz in the nominative?-- Berig 16:08, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Not at all, because the name with -ijaR, holtijaR, in the Guldhorn inscription does not mean "son of Holt, but is a titel, totaly independent from the name hlevagastiR.
HlevagastiR means english: living goose (fem) german: lebende Gans (fem) danish: levende gås (fem)
HoltijaR er en titel, which has the same meaning as ehalto. A person with a holdning.-- Gerhard schleu ( talk) 17:55, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
The article as it stands already contains some discussion of the possibility that the fragment teiwa(z) reflects the Grimm's law change *t -> *d but considering the seemingly less controversially identified Harigasti(z) already demonstrates the change *k -> *h as the first half of the compound *Harjaz is pretty universally reconstructed as deriving from a pan-European form *Kóryos itself usually derived from the PIE root *ker-.
I'm not a linguistic expert or an experienced wikipedia editor myself, so apologies for any mistakes Wulfgifu ( talk) 19:21, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
