"moeg" meaning in Afrikaans

See moeg in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

IPA: /muχ/ Audio: LL-Q14196 (afr)-Oesjaar-moeg.wav Forms: moeë [attributive], moeër [comparative], moegste [superlative]
Etymology: From Dutch moe, moede, from Proto-West Germanic *mōþī. Probably a backformation from the inflected forms of moe by analogy with such paradigms as hoog > hoë, laag > lae (with regular loss of intervocalic g). On the other hand, the form moeg also occurs in Brabantian and Flemish dialects, which have a palatal pronunciation of g and where therefore these forms are considered backformations from moeie (i.e. moeie > moei > moeg; cf. also Limburgish meug). Perhaps this southern Dutch moeg was reinforced by the internal Afrikaans analogy.
