Talk:shun

Etymology
Andrew H. Gray 17:24, 1 May 2019 (UTC) Compare the Cornish SCONYA (to avoid) [that might be a cognate[4]] <SCON (quick)[6] - one of the four lexemes with slightly varied meanings. It is possible that the cognate forms of shunt (of Norse origin)[8] are also ultimate derivatives of the root of SCON[5]; but there is no ascertained evidence for this. {Only, if this earlier meaning,"quick" is applicable, are the assumed P.I.E. semantics irrelevant in the entry account.

From [8], from [8], of origin. Possibly from [3], [3], [4], from [3], [3].

Alternatively, possibly ultimately from [2], from [7]; if so, cognate with 🇨🇬[7]. Andrew talk 10.26, 04 March 2024
