*tIb

be nervous, be uneasy

Part of speech

verb

Pronunciation

tʰɪb

Sound out *tIb letter by letter:

• ttʰstrongly aspirated t
• Iɪi as in 'bit'
• bbb as in 'bay'

*tIb is here assumed to be a misspelling of bIt, since it is spelled bIt in a majority of sources: TKD (three occurrences in the dictionary part), and it is spelled *tIb only once [KGT p.132]. (*tIb was confirmed as unintentional by Marc Okrand when asked by zrajm at qep'a' 2000).

• bIt — be nervous, be uneasy
• jotHa' — be uneasy

KGT p.132
