User:AryamanA/IA innovations

This is a list of Middle and New IA vocabulary innovations, focusing on terms not attested in earlier stages of the languages (OIA) but with perhaps earlier provenance. Top headings are the earliest stage that they can be reconstructed to. Next to each term in parentheses is the earliest stage of attestation.

Indo-European

 * , (Middle MIA)
 * 🇨🇬, vriddhi derivative from 🇨🇬, from 🇨🇬.
 * Compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬.
 * , (NIA)
 * 🇨🇬; from 🇨🇬. Seems reasonable. Compare 🇨🇬.
 * (Dardic)
 * 🇨🇬: 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, and well preserved in Nuristani.

Indo-Iranian

 * (Middle MIA)
 * EMIA ? (or is that hypercorrection?)
 * Compare 🇨🇬.
 * (Early MIA)
 * 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, but why is there unexplained gemination in MIA and why is this only attested in IA and Nuristani? Seems similar to how a lot of MIA > OIA back-formations work.
 * ?, (Late MIA)

Indo-Aryan

 * (NIA)
 * (NIA)
 * Reminds me of 🇨🇬 with an extension.
 * *sasta? (NIA)
 * Probably a borrowing from somewhere.
 * 🇨🇬 etc.
 * (Middle MIA)
 * Onomatopoeic probably. Compare 🇨🇬.
 * (Early MIA)
