"drēgns" meaning in Latvian

See drēgns in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

IPA: [drǣːɡns] Audio: lv-riga-drēgns.ogg
Etymology: From Proto-Baltic *dreg- (with an adjectivizing suffix -n, and expressive lengthening of the e; compare dialectal variant dregns with short e), from Proto-Indo-European *der- (“to tear, to pluck, to slice”) (whence also dīrāt (“to skin, to flay”), q.v.) with an extra suffix -gʰ (*der-gʰ, *dr-egʰ). From the original meaning, “to tear” > “to skin, to flay,” a number of other meanings were developed, relating to something unpleasant or repulsive (compare dergties (“to feel disgusted”)); in the case of drēgns, unpleasant cold and humidity.

From the original meaning, “to tear” > “to skin, to flay,” a number of other meanings were developed, relating to something unpleasant or repulsive (compare dergties (“to feel disgusted”)); in the case of drēgns, unpleasant cold and humidity.
