Комментарии: The fact that in PK there was no initial cluster is proved by compound words with no suffixal -y-. In the noun itself, however, this suffix produced various modifications: the most common is metathese for the elimination of an uncommon cluster: *kir-y-u > *kri-y-u. The nasalisation is not quite clear; maybe in some dialects there appeared a secondary -n- in between two other resonants: *kir-y-u > *kir-n-y-u, etc. Similar development in *piṛyu.
