@JohnC5: What of τέχνη and tela? -GuitarDudeness (talk) 06:53, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

@GuitarDudeness: You're asking whether they should be added? —JohnC5 18:34, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@JohnC5: If they are from here. -GuitarDudeness (talk) 19:00, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@GuitarDudeness: Beekes gives either *teḱ-sneh₂ or *tetḱ-neh₂ and De Vaan prefers *teḱ-s-leh₂. —JohnC5 05:24, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@JohnC5: So τέχνη would be either "begetting" or "creation" (the latter seems slightly more apt) and tela would be "begetting"? No *tetḱ-leh₂ suggested? In the end can you add these to these pages? -GuitarDudeness (talk) 09:30, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
@GuitarDudeness: De Vaan says that *tetḱ-leh₂ could also be an option, yes. In both cases, Beekes and De Vaan translate *teḱ-s- as "fashion", not "beget". —JohnC5 17:08, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
