Noun[edit]

*h₂eǵʰ-

  1. cow

Reconstruction notes[edit]

The vocalism of Celtic and Armenian do not match, the first requiring *h₂e-, the second *h₁e-. Therefore it is often assumed that one of them is unrelated.

  • Proto-Armenian:
  • Proto-Celtic: *agos
    • Old Irish: ag (see there for further descendants)
