But even so, I wonder what grounds there are for such a pronoun. But hypothetically, its accusative would actually be *pā́m, because of a sound rule known as Stang's law. The same is also seen in whose accusative is *dyḗm, and indeed in, whose accusative is also *sḗm (the nominative has a long vowel and loses its -s because of a similar sound rule, Szemerényi's law).

Can you name any descendants for those roots (besides the Germanic ones for *newd-, I know about those) that support their existence? (Also, *rei- would be written *rey- by our standards, and *nā- is likely *neh₂-)
