Notes: Reconstructed for the PEC level. An expressive root - however, with quite satisfactory correspondences.
In a few cases (cf. the root for "feather") labial initials get lost in Av. before a following laryngeal; if this is the case here, we could compare also Av. ħaṭ (gen. ħaṭú-l) "clay", Chad. ħaṭ (ħaṭí-l,ħaṭá-l) "dung".
