bezieh

Bezieh is not a standalone entry in standard German. It is the common stem bezieh-, which occurs in a group of related words that express ideas around relation, reference, and obtaining. Because it functions as a stem rather than as an independent word, Bezieh itself does not appear in dictionaries as a separate lexical item.

In German word formation, bezieh- appears with the be- prefix to create verbs and nouns. The resulting family includes beziehen (to obtain, to refer to), Bezeichnung? (the spelling differs in closely related forms), Beziehung (relationship), Bezug (reference or relation), and related derivatives such as Bezugnahme (reference or citation) and beziehend (present-participle/relating). The exact semantics shift among these forms, ranging from obtaining or deriving something to describing a relation or reference between things.

Usage examples illustrate the range of meanings. beziehen can be used as “ich beziehe mich auf” (I refer to) or “ich beziehe etwas” (I obtain something). Beziehung denotes a relational connection between people, objects, or concepts, as in “eine enge Beziehung” (a close relationship). Bezug can mean a reference or a relation, and in contexts like “Bezug zu” it expresses a connection or relevance. Beziehende forms, such as beziehend, function as adjectives or participles, e.g., “eine beziehende Stellungnahme.”

In linguistic and lexicographic work, bezieh- is treated as a productive derivational stem within the German word-formation system. It is not a separate lexical item with its own independent meaning, but a key building block for a family of semantically related words. See also Bezug, Beziehung, beziehen, Bezugnahme, Bezieher.
