Would you know how developed from this? —CodeCat 01:24, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I was just looking at LIN and it listed this, but now that you point it out, it is both very hard to find in references and strangely formed. There's also the easier-to-motivate, which we could swap in. I don't know how to explain the χ except maybe with h₂éǵ-s-mn̥, which De Vaan also glancingly suggests for , but I don't know what the behavior of *-Ksm- is except to say that -ξμ- is exceedingly rare. What do you think? — JohnC5 02:16, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Meaning goat
Shouldn't the meaning goat be presented separately from the primary meanings to drive, to act? In other cases like this one, the secondary meaning tends to be given on its own. Also, the actual agent descendants that allow reconstructing the meaning goat are currently missing: Only the n-derivative is listed (as of the moment). Безименен (talk) 19:21, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

 * I do not see whatever 'goat' or 'skin' should have to do with 'to drive'. See LIV:255,256 for much better examples.2A02:8108:9640:AC3:3876:D2D9:1EB:9E8C 09:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
