Reconstruction notes

Indo-Iranian and Balto-Slavic show the presence of an *-i- at several different locations in the root.

The LIV suggests the reanalysis of a *ye- present as part of the root itself with later metathesis of *g⁽ʷ⁾Hi- to *g⁽ʷ⁾iH- and then normalization to *g⁽ʷ⁾eyH- ~ *g⁽ʷ⁾iH-.[2]
