The consistent ē-vocalism in Greek is consistent with this reconstruction.

      1. to weave

      Reconstruction notes

      [edit]

      This root is similar to *teḱ- (to produce, beget, sire), and their descendants have partial semantic overlap. Only Old Armenian թեքեմ (tʻekʻem) conclusively points to the plain-velar *k, so it is often assumed that the other (Centum) descendants listed below are from *teḱ-. Though it can be neither confirmed nor disproven, it is also possible that the two are different but related forms of one original root.
