Turkish kap
[edit]Might this, by any chance, be related to Turkish kap and kapmak (-mak is an infinitive suffix)? 188.56.155.127 16:54, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- It might be, but I don't know anything about how Turkish developed, so it could also be a coincidence. —CodeCat 17:10, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- On one hand, Turkish had a lot of contact with European languages (Albanian is a particularly nice fit here), but on the other we'd need the Proto-Turkic to feel more sure. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:15, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- FWIW, the etymology at kap says: "Proto-Turkic *kā, *kāp". --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:18, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
Welsh caeth
[edit]This page currently derives Welsh caeth by two different routes:
- keh₂p- > kh₂ptós > kaxtos > kaɨθ > caeth
- keh₂p- > kh₂p-nós > kaɸnos > caeth
I guess the second one is wrong? --Caoimhin (talk) 14:16, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
- It looks like it, yes. —CodeCat 14:55, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
Thanks. I have removed it. --Caoimhin (talk) 11:24, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

Reconstruction with *a?
[edit]Pronk (2019) establishes quite conclusively this should be reconstructed as \*kh₂ep-. 5.68.48.12 10:49, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
