Is German Wuchs a descendant of this? Wyang (talk) 08:12, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because of the vowel, I doubt it. But it is certainly from the same root. It could be from either *wuhs- or *wōhs-. If you can find its MHG/OHG ancestor we can be more sure. —CodeCat 14:18, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
