[edit]

Kroonen gives the PIE root as *dʰrewHs-, probably in order to connect it with *drūsijaną (to drowse, fall asleep). But the vowels of *druziz and *drustiz seem to have been short, which points to *dʰrews-, no? Anglom (talk) 00:54, 4 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Of course it's also possible that those two forms have -u- by analogy with other roots. —CodeCat 01:32, 4 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
