MK etymology from Schuessler

@Wyang I don't see what's wrong with Erminwin's edits here. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 03:03, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

Schuessler merely states that it is MK and related to PMonic *kmcii?, not that it is from PMK *kmcii?. In fact, it specifically states that MK is *cii? and that Mon *km- is a common prefix. There is no mention of 姊 being a descendant of PMK *kmci? in Shorto, although the root itself is already unconvincingly reconstructed. The page number for Schuessler was also wrong.

@Wyang: I see. I think they're just using Schuessler for his connection to MK and Shorto for the reconstruction. It's not gibberish content, just a few relatively minor mistakes that may add up. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 03:30, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
