beggen, of uncertain origin. Possibly from Old English *becgian, *bedcian, syncopated forms of bedecian (“to beg”), itself of obscure origin. Possibly from Proto-West Germanic *bedukōn, a frequentative verb derived from Proto-West Germanic *bedu (“plea, petition, prayer”, whence English bead). Alternatively from Proto-West Germanic *bedagō (“petitioner, requester, beggar”), an agent noun from the same surce. Compare North Frisian bēdagi (“to pray”), Gothic 𐌱𐌹𐌳𐌰𐌲𐍅𐌰 (bidagwa, “beggar”). All ultimately from the root of English bid, which see for more. An alternative theory considers the verb a backformation from beggar and derives the latter from Old French begart (“kind of lay brother”).", "forms": [{"form": "begs", "tags": ["present", "singular", "third-person"]}, {"form": "begging", "tags": ["participle", "present"]}, {"form": "begged", "tags": ["participle", "past"]}, {"form": "begged", "tags": ["past"]}], "head_templates": [{"args": {}, "expansion": "beg (third-person singular simple present begs, present participle begging, simple past and past participle begged)", "name": "en-verb"}], "lang": "English", "lang_code": "en", "pos": "verb", "senses": [{"categories": ["English intransitive verbs", "English terms with usage examples"], "examples": [{"text": "He begged on the street corner from passers-by.", "type": "example"}], "glosses": ["To request the help of someone, often in the form of money."], "links": [["request", "request#Verb"], ["help", "help#Noun"], ["money", "money"]], "raw_glosses": ["(intransitive) To request the help of someone, often in the form of money."], "tags": ["intransitive"]}, {"categories": ["English terms with quotations", "English terms with usage examples", "English transitive verbs"], "examples": [{"text": "I beg your pardon.

Alternatively from Proto-West Germanic *bedagō (“petitioner, requester, beggar”), an agent noun from the same surce. Compare North Frisian bēdagi (“to pray”), Gothic 𐌱𐌹𐌳𐌰𐌲𐍅𐌰 (bidagwa, “beggar”). All ultimately from the root of English bid, which see for more.
