Let's tackle this fancy theory.
Once again,
I maintain that MCV's theory is
completely and unambiguously
refuted by macro-comparative data.
Fundamental *a = PIE *e
Proto-form *naHm "(piece of) meat"
Basque mami
(abnormal form which seems to
refute Trask's theorem about *m)
PIE me:m-so (assimilation)
Arabic lahma (l > n as in la? = ne)
Bantu nyama
Fundamental *o = PIE *o
Proto-form *pots "penis"
Basque buztan
Familiar txotxo
Greek pos-thê
Uralic Lapp buoc^c^
Mordvin papa
KAbyle
ibbus^en (adult)
tabbus^t (boy)
Fundamental *u = PIE *u
*tup "(over-)full"
Basque zu / tsu in unclear
it's probably from
*polu > wozu > zu
Germanic *s-tup
Arabic t._b_z, t._b_&, t._f_H
Hausa tumfaye
Chinese chong1 < *tup-ng
Turcic do:-l < *tup-l-
Uralic
UEW 518 *tup-di-
UEW 520 *tup-mi-
UEW 521 *tup-H-i-
Fundamental *i = PIE *i
Proto-form *yid "full moon"
Basque (h)il
LAtin i:d-u:s
Egyptian y_&_H *yi&aH
Coptic yoh
Requiescat in Pace.
