What to do with word xoda? In ESSJa xodъ and xoda are in same article - "*xodъ / *xoda".

Well we could treat them separately with separate descendants and inflection in separate articles, or in a single article like this one. Both approaches have been used. *xodъ seems to be the older form though. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 20:57, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Passage[edit]

The second gloss reads “passage” but I am not sure which sense is indicated therewith. The act of walking through something as distinguished from the faculty or habit of walking—a short walk or a day’s journey?—or a path on which walking is done, given that from the sense of a place where something sits the sense of a road developed and the Greek direct cognate has this sense? @Gnosandes wrote this but he is currently blocked so cannot answer here, and because he gets blocked for nonsense I am also not without doubt about the accuracy of accent distinction by multiple senses. @Rua knows the accents, perhaps she has an intuition what it should be.

Nothing I can say about this really. All I know is that only AP c actually comes from PIE *sodós. AP b would have to reflect *sódos. —Rua (mew) 14:10, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Fay Freak, Rua: I think that the form *xòdъ with the accent paradigm b can be derived from the verb *xodìti with the accent paradigm b. That is, it is a deverbal. It cannot be considered secondary because there is evidence of the Slovene, three dialects of the Transcarpathian region of Ukraine and the Central Pskov dialect of the Pskov region of Russia. Thus, the accent paradigm c is confirmed by Ancient Greek ὁδός (hodós), unless, of course, it is a borrowing from the southeast. Gnosandes (talk) 11:36, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
