Reconstruction notes
[edit]Sometimes included is Hittite 𒉺𒀀𒄿 (pa-a-i /pāi/), assuming it contains the prefix 𒁉𒂊- (pé-e- /pe-/),[2] but this is made obsolete by the derivation of the Hittite from *h₁ep- (“to seize”).[3][1]
The identification of the Celto-Germanic isogloss meaning “oath” is uncertain, and it may involve borrowing between these two branches. It is more commonly reconstructed as *h₁óytos, from *h₁ey- (“to go”), without the Greek. Beekes adduces the Greek under the assumption of a connection to the other Greek words belonging to *h₂ey-, and comparing the semantics of Younger Avestan 𐬀𐬉𐬙𐬀 (aēta, “punishment”)[4]
