Old Irish

Etymology

to- +‎ Proto-Celtic *guseti, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵéwseti, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵews-.

The future and preterite passive forms are analogical after do·gní (to do). The preterite 3sg. do·roígu also shows analogy with that verb; a preform *do·gú compared to do·gní (preterite 3sg. do·génai) would have an expected *do·roíge reformed to do·roígu to match. The present stem, including do·goa itself, was secondarily back-formed from the subjunctive stem as it was converted from an s-subjunctive to an a-subjunctive.[1]
