I wonder what the etymology is of витривалість

Perfunctory googling brought no results

@CowperKettle ЕСУМ says that тривати ("to last (for specific time)"), тривалий ("long-lasting"), тривкий ("durable, strong, persistent"), витривалий (and therefore витривалість) are from Polish trwac ("to last (for specific time), to live, to exist, to be located (somewhere), to withstand, to wait, to be devoted (to something), to be patient, to care, to consider"), which on its hand is from…

…Proto-Slavic *trьvati ("to last (for specific time), to insist (on something)").

@CowperKettle, as for "допавши зміни" — after long thinking (originally I had no idea at all), I think it to be the second meaning — "to desire/want/wish (something) very much". I.e. I suppose допавши зміни here actually means дуже бажаючи змін ("wanting changes so much"). However, I'm unsure.

Yeah here is like with 2 meaning: wanting and catch.

If what, there is not full poem, There are also 2 last couplets.

@follower originally actually I thought it to be the third meaning, like допА́сти коня, with зміна being not literally a "change", but rather "some internal state/impulse". I.e. I thought допавши зміни to be something like схопивши певний внутрішній порив, піддавшись певному внутрішньому пориву ("catching some internal impulse, acting according to some internal impulse"). But it looks too complex.

@follower where is the full poem?

@Sasha Full poem is here for example

But it does not help. Yeah, ovetake moment, impulse and so on.

@follower thanks

@Sasha Дякую!
