Re: [tied] The demonstrative root [k]; etc

*(h1)e- itself is a pronominal morpheme which combines quite freely with other such elements (e.g. Russian eto < *(h1)e-tod), so the analysis of <ekei(tHi)> (also <kei>, without the prothesis!) as *h1e-k^ei-(dHi) is justifiable.

(1) I suspect that the PIE demonstrative root [k-y] (Greek [ekei], [(e)keithi] = "there yonder", Anglo-Saxon "he:, he:o, hit", was actually [H1-k-y], since Greek has the prefixed vowel.
