Vliek
From User talk:Rua
Hi Codecat, I already had found the WNT-source you have added to the entry, but it conflicts with the current order of descendants. The source says: "(vlieke) uit fra. flèche (dat zelf waarschijnlijk aan mnl. vleke is ontleend)." If the source is reliable, it would change the structure of descendants to this:
- Old Dutch: *flieka
- Middle Dutch: vleke
- Middle French: flèche
- Middle Dutch: vlieke
- Dutch: vliek
- French: flèche
- Middle Dutch: vlieke
- Middle French: flèche
- Middle Dutch: vleke
Can you confirm this? Morgengave (talk) 15:14, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

vleke doesn't seem to match up with the sound changes known for Dutch, because iu > u, not e. However, it does match up for Low German...
Perhaps it's better then to use a different source for the current structure. It's a bit strange to use a source which partially contradicts what the word article presents.
