RFD discussion: June 2023
Proto-Germanic. The only descendant seems to be 🇨🇬. Was already orphaned when I found it. Catonif (talk) 20:48, 13 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete. Apparently also, according to Kluge. But yeah a Proto-Germanic reconstruction is completely uncalled for. —Caoimhin ceallach (talk) 21:07, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I've moved it to Reconstruction:Proto-West Germanic/askijō and sourced the reconstruction. Caoimhin, why would you vote delete with a Saxon cognate? -- Sokkjō 02:34, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Because with only two cognates borrowing is possible. Where did you find Old Dutch and Middle Low German cognates? They're not in Kroonen (2011). Good finds if true. —Caoimhin ceallach (talk) 10:35, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * There is some literature asserting this as PG on the basis of a Finnish reflex, allegedly loaned from Scandinavian and then lost there; but newer research simply takes it as a direct loan from Low German, so PWG seems correct. --Tropylium (talk) 17:24, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
