Reconstruction:Proto-Celtic/annketi

Etymology
From.

One of the most controversial terms in Proto-Celtic to reconstruct, only outmatched by in controversy. The main problem comes from the vowel of 🇨🇬, whose presence of i- is irregular, since all possible initials ank-, enk- and ink- all normally become éc- in Old Irish.

The mainstream reconstruction, *annketi, was introduced by Peter Schrijver in the 1990s and has remained the most popular theory since. It places faith in the assumption that *annk- would result in a different outcome in the daughter languages to that of *ank-. Kim McCone, rejecting the now-mainstream reconstruction, has attempted to position as counterevidence by reconstructing  for it, comparing the verb to. However, EDPC points out that a pre-Irish denominal formation is enough to beget, removing the supposed counterevidence.
