Reconstruction talk:Proto-Slavic/kysnǫti

Currently, the thread gives *kъsьnъ ("late") as a related term of *kysnǫti. I don't see what is that relation though. I admit that the two forms look alike and, indeed, both Derksen and Trobachev mention the resemblance between the two, however, in the same time both reject it. *kysnǫti is most likely derived from pIE *kutH-s, while *kъsьnъ is undetermined but appears to be descend from something like *kʷeḱ- (“to appear”). What is certain, though, is that the -ś- in *kъsьnъ is from pIE *ḱ, not from *Ts as in *kysnǫti. This is proven by the evidence in Baltic (e.g. Lithuanian kušlas (“weak”), Latvian kusls (“stiff”), which do not follow the normal development of -Us- from RUKI law). On this account, I don't think the two should be related. Bezimenen (talk) 13:08, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

@Bezimenen I wanted to write *kъsenь but mistakenly got *kъsьnъ, thanks for checking. Actually Trubachev doesn't reject the relation, therefore this word will have {{q|possibly}} (like on page *kvasъ in related terms). Semantically they remind *mъděti and Russian медленный (medlennyj, “slow”)
