Welsh

Etymology

From Middle Welsh arhos, from Proto-Celtic *ɸare + *woseti (spend the night; remain), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wes- (spend the night). The -s- originally belonged only to the verbal noun (which is from *ɸarewostom) since *-s- between vowels disappears in Brythonic, hence Middle Welsh forms like arhoaf (I wait) have no -s-; in Modern Welsh the -s- has been extended to the finite forms by analogy.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈarɔs/

Verb

aros (stem arhos-)

  1. (intransitive) to wait, to stay
    Dw i’n aros am y bws.
    I’m waiting for the bus.
