I've reread them, and I don't think Jens has misunderstood this
point. You wrote, in message 32625:
'In athematic declension, the accusative is *-m and the genitive
plural is *-om. The thematic then is simply the product of thematic
vowel plus the athematic endings. If you do the math, merely
grafting the same endings *-m and *-om to thematic stems would
otherwise produce a homophonous *-o-m.'
I for one do not understood the side claim of -o- + -om = -om
(thematic genitive plural) - it looks like an irrelevant mistake.
You do seem to be claiming thematic accusative singular *-o-m,
athematic genitive plural *-om. Perhaps you could clarify by an
example, e.g. *owyom 'egg'.

And you have a problem too if we don't understand you. Do you re-
read your misinterpreted posts?
