Proto-Indo-European

Alternative reconstructions

  • *h₂éwh₂s ~ *h₂uh₂ós[1]

Reconstruction

On the basis of the geminate "ḫ" in Hittite "ḫuḫḫa-", Kloekhorst concludes that it cannot reflect a diphthong, since it's contradicted by Eichner's lenition law. Therefore he argues that an athematic ablauting paradigm should be reconstructed instead.

Noun

*h₂éwh₂os m (non-ablauting)[2]

  1. maternal grandfather
