Etymology

Borrowed from Italian istituire.

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /ɪs.tɪtˈwɪʃ.ʃa/

Verb

istitwixxa (imperfect jistitwixxi, past participle istitwit, verbal noun istitwir)

  1. to institute

Conjugation
  • The traditional rule is that the syllable -ixx- is lost before stressed endings; that is in the past tense, before -x, and before a pronominal suffix. The contemporary tendency is to either keep -ixx- in all forms or avoid it in all forms (see istitwa above).
