Etymology
[edit]@Kwékwlos: Do you have any sources for this etymology? —*i̯óh₁n̥C[5] 08:12, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
- @*i̯óh₁n̥C[5], I've reworked this and *puta (“two”). I think Kwékwlos went too far in calling this "cognate", which implies that the words for "one" and "two" were once the same thing. Likewise for *mi (“three”) and *mu (“six”), and *yə (“four”) and *ya (“eight”). ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 18:01, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
