The reference given is false. There is no mention of esu-/esus= good in Matasovic's book. The prefix meaning good in ancient celtic is su- < *h₁su- (Matasovic p 358). I know of no esu-/esus prefix in old celtic. There must be a confusion with the indo-european reconstructed word esus in "Indogermanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch" [Indo-European Etymological Dictionary] (in German), Bern, München: Francke Verlag, page 342. This word is not protoceltic. This article has to be deleted. --Kadwalan (talk) 18:26, 11 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
