I thought that in equations like Greek [-khth-] / [-kt-]
= Sanskrit [-ks.-], the kþ "k-thorn" theory was disproved by forms
such as Tocharian-A [tkam]. In Greek, [-tk-] became [-kt-] with
metathesis. In Sanskrit, which is a satem language, [-tk-] became [-
ts.-] which became [-ks.-]. In Sanskrit the consonant sequence [-ks.-
] is so common that there is a special Devanagari and Gujarati letter
pronounced [ks.a].
