Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *sēdḗˀtei, from Proto-Indo-European *sed-.

Verb

sēdēt (intransitive, 3rd conjugation, irregular, present sēžu, sēdi, sēž, past sēdēju)

  1. to sit, to be seated

Usage notes

The present active participle form sēžošs is considered non-euphonic because of the ž-š fricative sequence; the form sēdošs is therefore preferred. The adverbial participle form sēžot does not have this problem and is actually more frequent than its alternative form sēdot.
