Reconstruction:Proto-Uralic/towe
Proto-Uralic
Reconstruction
Sammallahti (1988) reconstructs *toxe, supposing that only *x is word-medially lost in Samoyedic. According to Aikio (2002: 35, 49), also the semivowels *j, *w were lost before 2nd-syllable *e (compare e.g. *sewe-, *śowe), which would allow the reconstruction *towe.
Noun
*towe
