Dro  on the other hand  þrǫstr,, ‘thrush,’  *þrastus. This abundance of words which are undoubtedly closely allied renders any sure comparison with cognate words beyond a difficult task. The turdêla, ‘thrush,’ may be for *tṛzdêla; in that case the st of  drostel,  throstle, is shifted from sd (see, , , ); turdêla is a derivative of turdus, ‘thrush,’ closely connected with  þrǫstr,  ( *þrastus, ). has a longer form for, with an initial s — strázdas, which makes the origin of st of drostel from zd, sd, a certainty. drozdŭ, drozgŭ, are abnormal. The words of the group found their way into :  trâle (from *þrasla, *þrastla). — is one of the few names of birds found in several Aryan languages at the same time, and entirely free from the assumption that they were borrowed.

 (2.),, ‘throat, throttle, Adam's apple,’ preserved only in the erdrosseln, ‘to throttle, strangle’; not allied to  (1.), as is shown by  droȥȥe, , ‘gullet, throat.’   droȥȥa,  þrotu, ,  throat, and likewise  throttle ( and ), an l. There is a parallel group with an initial s added (see (1.), );  stroȥȥe,  strota, ‘throat, windpipe,’  stroot; see. From the word found its way into, —  strozza, ‘throat,’ strozzare, ‘to strangle.’  ,, ‘chief magistrate’ (a word), from  droste, drossête; the latter is identical with  truhtsœȥe,  ; for  see under.   ,, ‘pressure, oppression, printing, proof,’ from druc (-ckes), , ‘pressure, violent impact, rebound, hostile encounter,’  druck; corresponds to  þryc (cc supported by ofþrycc), ‘pressure.’   ', ', ‘to press, oppress, hug, print,’ from drücken, drucken,  drucchen (  þryccan, ‘to press’),  drucken, an unmodified  variant, has a specialised meaning in. In the  would be *þrukks, the  þrukkjan. Since the  drücken is  to ‘to press, throng, oppress, thrust oneself,’ the meanings harmonise well with, which is based upon an Aryan root trenk, while  would be derived from a root trek  without the nasal; the kk of the theoretical  form originated probably in kn. —   , a frequentative form of.   ,, ‘sorceress,’ ; trute,. ‘demoness, nightmare’;, trutenvuoȥ. In spite of its wide diffusion ( drude, Gothland. druda), the form of the word is obscure, for it is impossible to see to what the initial t and  d are related. Perhaps trute is to be connected with the  ; in that case  would be a euphemism similar perhaps to  Eumenides.    (1.),, ‘ore with a drossy or crystal surface,’ simply ; of obscure origin.

 (2.), ‘glanders,’ ; identical with.   ,, ‘gland, kernel, swelling of the glands,’ from drüese, druose (whence the  variant druse, but only in a special sense);  druos, druosi, , ‘glanders,’  *þros or þrôhsi?, is wanting; so too in  there is no cognate term.   ,, an word for ‘dregs, lees,’ from  druosene,  truosana ( dialects have ue in the accented syllable); corresponds to  droesem,  droesene,  drôsn, ‘dregs.’ The base is perhaps  drôhsnô, to which  dregs,  ,  are also allied. <section end="Drusen" /> , 2nd, ‘thou’; from  and  du, and the collateral  and  dû;   þû,  thou;  tu,  τύ, σύ, and  tvam, are  cognates. The details respecting the Aryan stem belong to grammar. <section begin="Ducaten" /> , (ducat,, rarely  in earlier ), ‘ducat,’ from late  ducâte,  ( ducâtus). <section end="Ducaten" /> <section begin="Ducht" /> ',, ', and , ‘rowing seat, thwart;’ the form with f is , that with ch ; dofta, ,  þopta, , ‘thwart’;  gidofto,  ‘comrade on the thwart,’  geþofta, ‘comrade.’ One of the prim- naval terms developed during the migrations of the Teutons; see , , , , &c.
