Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/dl̥h₁gʰós
Appearance
Proto-Indo-European
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From the stem *delh₁gʰ- (“~ to be long; to last, endure”), found in Ancient Greek ἐνδελεχέω (endelekhéō, “to continue”), ἐνδελεχής (endelekhḗs, “continuous”) and probably Latin indulgeō (“to concede”),[1] which appears to be a compound of a marginally attested root *del(h₁)- (“long”) (cf. Russian длина́ (dliná), Old Czech dél (“length”),[2] Proto-Slavic *dьliti (“to last, prolong, delay”)[3] and Old Norse tálma (“to hinder”)) plus an unknown root *h₁egʰ- or suffix *-gʰ-.[4]
Resemblance to the synonym *dlongʰos is conspicuous and probably not by coincidence, but a formal connection is difficult, due to the presence of the laryngeal in one but not the other.
Adjective
[edit]*dl̥h₁gʰós (non-ablauting)[5][6]
