Question about the verb 「嗅ぐ」


Here is the sentence containing the verb in て-form.

> ひさしぶりに この本皮のグローブがしっとりと敵の血をすって なんともいえねえ においを **かがして** くれる....

As my understanding, the pattern てくれる use て-form verb which the verb would be
嗅{か}いで.

Is the verb 「かがして」 Tokyo dialect?




The base verb here is:

> 「嗅{か}ぐ」= "to smell something"

「かが **し** て」 is the fairly common colloquial (and slightly slangy) version
of「かが **せ** て」. This is the テ-form of 「かがせる」(" ** _to let one smell
something_** "), which is in the causative form of 「かぐ」. Please make sure you
are following this because every word is important in this paragraph.

「かがして」 is not Tokyo dialect; It is used everywhere. People say 「見{み} **し** て」
for 「見 **せ** て」("Let me see."), 「食{た}べさ **し** て」 for 「食べさ **せ** て」("Let me
eat".), etc. colloquially. I do not think this is taught in Japanese-as-a-
foreign-language, and I do not think J-learners should be using these until
they are really fluent, either.

> "For the first time in so long, these leather gloves that have surely been
> sucking my opponents' blood are now letting me smell an indescribable
> smell."
