éşid- primarily ‘to hear (something Acc.)’ in a physical sense, with some extended meanings, like ‘to get news of (something Acc.)’ and, esp. in the Imperat., ‘to listen’ without specific Object, although ‘to listen’ is properly tıŋla:-. The variations in spelling at all periods, and the position of the word after üşet- in Kaş., point clearly to an original initial é-. The second consonant is consistently -d- in Runic script and this -d- survives in the modern Oğuz languages in spellings like the Pass. f., Osm. işidil-, Tkm. eşidil-. It became -t- in Xak. and most modern languages; the Uyğ. spellings are too ambiguous to indicate where and when the change occurred.
