"kauen" meaning in German

See kauen in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /ˈkaʊ̯ən/ Audio: De-kauen.ogg
Etymology: From Middle High German kūwen, kiuwen, kewen, from Old High German kūwen, kiuwan, from Proto-West Germanic *keuwan. The form shows the Central German development of Middle High German -iuw- → -ūw-, which is only sporadically reflected in the modern standard language (compare brauen). The expected form can still be found in the compound wiederkäuen (“to chew the cud”). Cognate with Dutch kauwen, Low German käwwen, West Frisian koaie, kôgje, English chew.
