Reconstruction notes
Sometimes (more traditionally) hypothesized to be its own root *Hem- in o-grade, though this does not easily account for the lengthened grades.[1] Contrarily, reconstructions with a coda laryngeal struggle to explain the reflexes with non-lengthened grades, but these may be explained either as dialectal pretonic shortening (Dybo's law) or as dissimilation of the second laryngeal to zero. The values of both laryngeals remain uncertain.[6][4]
Kroonen, comparing this set with Proto-Germanic *ēmǭ (“erysipelas”), reconstructs the root alternatively as *h₁eh₁- (“raw, reddish (of skin)”) with derivatives *h₁éh₁-mon- and *h₁oh₁-mó-.[2]
