Then one would also like to explain Permian cognates...

Zyrian 'goz' and Votyak 'kuz'.

I don't think that it is certain that Fin. 'kansa' < *hansa:, although
it is a likely possibility.

We should also look at Fin. 'kanssa' - with < kansa, which falls more
in line with the Permian meanings of - pair.

Where is Jouppe when we need him?
