Reconstruction talk:Proto-Indo-European/dwey-

Some insights from the -gʰ extension of *dwey-
It is worth noting that this root also gave rise to > Germanic, Slavic. On this account, its original meaning probably was to impel, to segregate. This could explain both the figurative meaning to fear and the literal nuances such as motion, branching, two-ness. Obviously, this is only a speculation, which lacks direct historical support, yet I thought it should be mentioned at least in the discussion board. Bezimenen (talk) 20:37, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
