Proto-Uralic[edit]
Notes[edit]
Often reconstructed, on the basis of the Sami and Mordvinic evidence, as *oda-. Aikio (2013) has argued that the reconstruction *ade- better accounts for the Ugric descendants, and that a regular sound change *a-e > *o-a has taken place in the former two.
Verb[edit]
*ade-
- to sleep
Derived terms[edit]
- *adema (“sleep, dream”)

- Proto-Mordvinic: *udəms
- Proto-Samic: *oaδētēk (see there for further descendants)
