@Victar, neither *welk- nor *welgʰ- could have given rise to *walkaną...Leasnam (talk) 20:02, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Leasnam: Did you read the Kroonen source? He speculates that "the k of *walkan- must have arisen due to influence from the pertaining iterative verb *wulk/gon- (q.v.)." --Victar (talk) 20:25, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
"*walkan- (q.v.), originally conjugated as 3sg. *wulkōþi, 3pl. *wulgunanþi < *ulgʰ-néh₂-ti, *ulgʰ-nh₂-énti." --Victar (talk) 20:43, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
Maybe we should add that into our etymology somewhere (?) Leasnam (talk) 20:56, 20 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
