Lithuanian
Etymology
From an older nesà or nėsà , which Ford interprets as ne- + *so ; the latter element being from Proto-Indo-European *so ( “ conjunctve particle ” ) ;[ 1] compare Hittite 𒋗 ( šu- , “ preterite conjunctive particle ” ) , Old Irish se ( “ conjunctive particle ” ) , ultimately deriving most likely from the Proto-Indo-European demonstrative *só, *séh₂, *tód . See tas for more. The further parallel drawn by Ford with Hittite 𒈾𒀸𒋗 ( naššu , “ or ” ) is neither supported nor ruled out by Kloekhorst.[ 2]

IPA (key ) : /nʲɛs/
