Old Irish
Etymology
From oc + ·bí (habitual present of at·tá (“to be”)). Compounds of that verb were often confused with those from benaid (“to strike”) in early Irish, leading to stem-final -n- in some present forms.
The m in prototonic forms appears to be due to interference from the prefix com-.
Pronunciation
