Etymology

From Middle High German leit from Old High German leid, from Proto-Germanic *laiþaz, whence also English loathe and Old Norse leiðr. From Proto-Indo-European *h?leyt- (“unpleasant; to loathe, transgress”) whence also Latin laed? (“strike, betray”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /la??t/

Adjective

leid (comparative leider, superlative am leidesten)

1. (obsolete outside of fixed expressions) distressing, uncomfortable

Usage notes

• Now only used with sein, werden, haben, and as part of the verb leidtun.
• The spelling leid tun was used before the 1996 spelling reform, which replaced it with the spelling Leid tun. In 2004 the alternative form leidtun was added to this, and in 2006 the first reform spelling Leid tun became proscribed. The reasoning for the now prescribed lowercase spelling in the official spelling rules is however incorrect because leid in leidtun and es tut mir/ihm etc. leid is not a form of the noun Leid that has "mostly lost the characteristics of a noun".
