Reconstruction:Proto-Germanic/mili
Proto-Germanic
Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *mélit.
Pronunciation
Noun
*mili n
Inflection
The nominative singular form lacks the final consonant of the stem, similar to *alu, due to Pre-Germanic loss of final *-t. However, in this case, *þ became *d in the oblique cases due to Verner's law.
