ouroboros |
I didn't give an example of the outcome of initial *gw before an o even though there is an excellent example that shows that there was no delabialization of the labiovelar in this environment. The reflex was *u̯, as is the default. This example should be added to p. 87 B after *gweru.
*gworo/ā- (← *gwerh3- ‘swallow’) > uorā- in uorāx ‘ravenous’ and uorat ‘swallows ravenously’, cf. Gk. βορός ‘gluttonous’, βορά ‘food’, Ved. giráti ‘devours’
