Reconstruction talk:Proto-Germanic/gōmô

Two words, not one

-au- could never have given -ō- in Old English or Old Norse, they must come from -ō-. And OHG even has both -ou- (< -au-) and -uo- (< -ō-) so I think this has to be reconstructed as a pair of forms, rather than a single one. —CodeCat 12:45, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

I've put OHG goumo and it's descendants under the variant. But what about the MLG and Middle Dutch forms? They aren't regular either, are they? Kolmiel (talk) 00:28, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Also, shouldn't PG -ō- yield Old Dutch -uo-? Kolmiel (talk) 00:29, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
