My point is that word first meant "female" --i.e. a
grown daughter or a daughter who would be married and
nurse her children

================

A bold analysis of daughter *dhugH2°ter
could then be from *uk-sor "wife"
t?_wg-H2_t-er
one (-er) to be (t?-) married (wg) child (H2_t).

But it's really bold.

Note that sister is not so far :
s-wed-to:r : the one (s-) who is wed (wed-)
