# 빟다
## Middle Korean
### Alternative forms

* 빟다 (pihta, phonemically faithful orthography rarely actually used but normal in modern scholarship)

### Etymology

Perhaps derived from 비〮 (pí, “rain”) by adding the verb stem ᄒᆞ (ho-, “to do”) > -ㅎ (-h); compare 나타〮 (nàthá, “to give birth”), derived in this same manner from 나다〮 (nàtá, “to come out”).

### Pronunciation

* IPA: /pìh.tá/, [pì.tʰá]

### Verb

비타〮 (pìthá) (infinitive 비허〮, sequential 비흐니〮) (transitive)
