weiten

to widen

Past (Präteritum)
weitete
Past participle
geweitet (haben)

Regular weak verb taking haben. It is used to describe the act of making something wider, such as eyes expanding in surprise or a tailor adjusting clothing. It is frequently used in the reflexive form 'sich weiten' when referring to pupils or passages expanding naturally. Distinguish this from 'weitern', which is an informal, non-standard spelling sometimes used in dialects for 'weitermachen'. Its use here relates to the sudden opening or enlargement of the eyes in response to a shock or revelation, denoting physical reaction to intense emotion or focus on an object of importance.
