*g or *ǵ?
LIV, Martirosyan, and Beekes have *g, but De Vaan and Derksen have *ǵ. The Balto-Slavic seems to point to *g, but Derksen proposes the opposite. The reverse is the case for Armenian and *ǵ, but Martirosyan proposes *g. I'm so confused. — JohnC5 01:36, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Me too. —CodeCat 01:39, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * , any thoughts about this? Also, Beekes mentions another Auslaut form *h₁rewk- as the origin of several words meaning "to roar" (🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 < 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 < 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬). — JohnC5 02:17, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Slavic and Persian both have a stop. What is the evidence for ǵ? — ObſequiousNewt — Geſpꝛaͤch — Beÿtraͤge 02:37, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * As best I can tell, only Armenian. I'm just so baffled why De Vaan and Derksen disagree. — JohnC5 02:52, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * PIE velars are palatalized in Armenian after *-u. Compare, , , . So Armenian is cool with either *ǵ or *g. --Vahag (talk) 08:27, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * ...So there is no evidence for a palatal? — JohnC5 14:20, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Not from Armenian, no. What about 🇨🇬 (→ 🇨🇬)? --Vahag (talk) 16:06, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Why the change in consonant? —CodeCat 16:13, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Which consonant do you mean? Anyway, the etymology given at is probably wrong.  is rather inherited and  is Old East Slavic, not Church Slavonic. --Vahag (talk) 07:09, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
