stånn

• stunn
• ståt
• stot

From Old Norse stund (or rather *stond), from Proto-Germanic *stundō (“point in time, hour”), from Proto-Indo-European *stut- (“prop”), from Proto-Indo-European *stā-, *sth- (“to stand”). Southern doublet stunn possibly borrowed from Swedish stund, perhaps influenced analogically by sånder - sunner doublets.

stånn f (definite stånna or stånnä)

1. while

Definite stånnä ([stɒ́nːə̃]~[stɒ́nːæ̃]) is likely an older pronunciation of stånna ([stɒ́nːɐ̃]~[stɒ́nːɐ]), from the nasalisation of *stondin(a) (Icelandic stundina). Compare vikä~vika, möyre~möyra.
