Definitely not a root[edit]

@GuitarDudeness, CodeCat, this certainly is not a root. Probably a particle? —JohnC5 15:27, 6 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

May be... Seems to be operated as *éy, *só... I transcribed it from Pokorny... -GuitarDudeness (talk) 16:06, 6 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
@GuitarDudeness: Do my changes make sense? —JohnC5 04:38, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
@JohnC5: Beautiful! Thank you. So those sources confirm Latin dum being from here and not from *dyew- or *dew(s)- (whence δεύτερος (deúteros), δήν (dḗn), p.219 of Pokorny)? Still have to put dōnec, dēnique. -GuitarDudeness (talk) 12:57, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
@GuitarDudeness: Yes, it does confirm that. —JohnC5 15:56, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

De Vaan doesn't give this meaning[edit]

De Vaan is cited, but he doesn't give the meaning 'towards'. He gives the meanings 'here, there'. 87.126.21.225 20:49, 29 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
