nuib

Megleno-Romanian

Alternative forms

nui̯b, noi̯b

Etymology

From Latin obviō, most likely becoming prefixed at a later stage (as is relatively common of Balkan Romance verbs). Less likely from a hypothetical Vulgar Latin *inobviō. Cognate to Istro-Romanian ăniurbå. The expected Romanian cognate was likely displaced by the verb of Hungarian origin întâlni multiple centuries ago. Compare also the related Romanian regional noun uib.

Verb

nuib

to meet
