[edit]Reconstruction notes
[edit]Rix reconstructs *gʰrebh₂- (“seize”) and tentatively *gʰrebʰ- (“dig”). Pokorny reconstructs *gʰrebʰ-, *gʰerbʰ- for both meanings. Derksen derives *grabiti from *gʰreb- rather than *gʰrebʰ- due to Winter's law, which is required to produce the acute *-a- of the Slavic root but would not operate in *gʰrebʰ-. In descendant families, there is contamination between the two meanings.
