беꙁдъжгьѥ

• беꙁдъжгиѥ (beźdŭźgije)

First attested in the mid 11th century ‒ mid 12th century, and later exactly from 1124. Inherited from Proto-Slavic *bezdъždžьje with Old Pskovian reflex *zdj > жг (źg), compare typical Eastern Old Novgorodian *zdj > ждж (ždž).^[1] By surface analysis, беꙁ- (beź-, “without”) +‎ дъжгь (dŭźgĭ, “rain”) +‎ -ьѥ (-ĭje). Cognate with Old Ruthenian бездожджьє (bezdoždžʹje), Old Church Slavonic бездъждиѥ (bezdŭždije).
