I have been using byrsta, though bærsta or berstend might fit better. Hogweard 16:21, 26 Solmōnaþ 2012 (UTC)

I think, as a productive suffix, "-a" is mostly/completely used for people? There are several words that fit it okay, including "brecan", "aberstan", "forþblǣstan", and "springan" (which was used to describe volcanic activity - see B&T's entry on "Etna"). I'll put "berstend" in.    Ƿes hāl!     03:37, 27 Solmōnaþ 2012 (UTC)
