    Reconstruction notes

    [edit]

    Some sources such as LIV reconstruct full-grade forms *bʰewh₂- or *bʰweh₂-, on the basis of Italic and Celtic preterite and subjunctive stem.[1][2] Schumacher points out that the full grade II is (beyond Italic forms) also continued, among others, in Albanian botë.[3] The generalisation of the zero grade in most forms has been linked to the occurrence of labial occlusive + labial semivowel in the full grade *bʰweh₂-.[4] According to Jasanoff, this root has no full grade, and the laryngeal cannot be precisely determined.[5]
