User:Chuterix/Chuterix's Proto-Japonic Reconstruction Dictionary Project/Old

I'm an etymologist who's currently on the work of creating Japanese (not on'yomi, as many are derived from Middle Chinese) etymologies; focusing here on the ones from Proto-Japonic! I am also trying to revive the Proto-Japonic information that will be available. Soon I may create a complete list of Proto-Japonic words (if I can).

Reconstructions
Note: New reconstructions are no longer added here. Please see my contributions page for a list of created reconstructions and more.


 * Modern

Pre-Proto-Japonic Reconstructions
Possibly roots belong to Pre-Proto-Japonic, an earlier stage of Proto-Japonic, or at least reconstructed roots that are now extinct.

*puk-
I suggest this reconstruction of Pre-Proto-Japonic root *puk- to support the following words:

*pVt-

 * (< *pat)
 * (< *pat)
 * (< *pat)
