Proto-Celtic

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Matasović finds connecting these Celtic terms to an Indo-European root to be very difficult.[1] Ancient Greek πάσχω (páskhō, “to undergo”)[2] and Lithuanian pakentė́ti[3] have been compared, but suffer from major phonetic incompatibilities.[4]

Verb

[edit]

*kʷetyeti[2]

  1. to spare, save
  2. to have mercy on
