What about Serbian pora-djati (giving birth)

Obviously po- is the prefix and -radjati is the verb part (cf. -
rodit', -rodzic' in Russian and Polish). Sometimes I really wonder
whether you are really that stupid or just irritating us.

He is stubbornly ignoring the prefigating system, although it's
perfectly transparent and still productive (or so it seems to this
non-native). Thinking of it, do we have more than his own word to
support that he's really a native speaker of a Slavic language -- and
not some Jai Maharaj clone trying to outserb the Serbs?

My impression is that he is a (native) speaker of modern
Serbian. I also believe that he hasn't studied any other
contemporary or ancient Slavic languages. His understanding
of Slavic word morphology is totally weird and wilfully childish.

- hyphenating

OK sage, would you tell me are the words like Latin prognatus prefixed
or not; pro + gnatus? Compare Latin gnatus and natus; also praegnatis,
paegnantem; prae (before) + gnatus, gnasci (be born);
Serbian bremenita (with child, pregnant). ;-)

p.s.
Modern Serbian is older than Old Serbian or OCS, because the Serbian
linguist and language reformer, Vuk Kard?ic, turned it back to its
oldest "shepherd" form. OCS is the language modeled for the
ecclesiastic needs and purposes; as such OCS must have been
"decorated" in order to achieve its desirable mystical attributes. ;-)
