My intention was semantic development, so you and Mr. Vidal could
<drage volje> `with free will' (free, friend, Friday are all derived
from PIE root *pri:- `to love', as are Lat. <amicus> and <amor>
related, as well as Albanian <dashamir> `friend' and
<dashuri> `love') object from <nevolje> to <nedraga> and for me it is
all correct.
I try to cite Derksen as correctly as possible, bur it seems that you
moderators like to make confusion from everything and it's up to you
how you chopped messages and how you read them. At last, I didn't
care about that.
I try to find some kind of phonetical developmet from *dHrougH-o- >
*drugU `friend'and to reconstruct some possible form *dHrogH-ú >
*dorgU for `dear'.
That's all folks!
