Old Irish

Etymology

From Proto-Celtic *tustus, from the same root as tóe. Several phonological peculiarities relating to the evolution of this term, such as irregular final -st (which should have become -s(s) /s/) and the initial consonant fluctuating between t- and s-, are probably due to contamination from its synonym, socht. This contamination intensified over time, giving birth to Middle Irish and Early Modern Irish forms like tocht and sosd.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈtost/

Noun

tost m (genitive unattested, no plural)

  1. silence
    Synonym: socht
