[SPAM]Re: [tied] Re: PS Emphatics

The phenomenon of making originally weak verbs strong can also be found
in the Nordic dialects:

more or less accepted in Swedish:
rök instead of rykte (made smoke), böt - bytte ((ex)changed), lös -
lyste (was alight), betöd - betydde (signified).

This latter, betöd, seems (to me) to have become the most used form in
Danish. Am I correct?
In Norwegian (I think) both are received.

All these examples are made from (and rhyming on) genuinely strong
verbs like knyta knöt knutit and only the preterite with ö is used.

There are also other patterns: gita get instead of gita gitte (bring
oneself to do) from a verb like skita sket (shit shat).
