Which is the correct past tense of ‘begleiten’?

Question

I have found begleiten (to accompany) conjugated two different ways.

Verbformen.net suggests:

begleiten, begleitete, begleitet

While Collins Dictionary (Online) suggests:

begleiten, beglitt, begleitet

Which is correct?

Answer 1

Only the forms begleitete, begleitet are correct.

There is however the verb gleiten (to slide). So one can imagine an ad hoc formation of a transitive verb begleiten in analogy to befahren or begehen, as in

*Ich begleite das Eis.

The past tense would then be:

*Ich beglitt das Eis.

This makes me smile and is certainly not standard.
