Reconstruction talk:Proto-Germanic/gellaną

etymology question
is this related to greek γελάω which says: From. Cognates include Old Armenian .--Itaj Sherman (talk) 22:32, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
 * It can't be related because of Grimm's law. *ǵ becomes *k in Germanic, and the Germanic *g has its origin in either *gʰ or *ǵʰ, which itself matches up with Greek χ, never γ. So this word does not match up. 22:35, 11 December 2012 (UTC)

Possibly related to Hebrew ילל (y-l-l yalal)(wail)? Darkmagine (talk) 02:24, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
