Hello Piotr,
Ok, Piotr : *-o: (the 1sg. pres. of verbs) was lost before the lost
of intervocalic -d-, so in hedh we have had only one syllable *hedh
when the intervocalic -d- was lost

But next, please explain us why the dh in the form <<Ne hedhim>> 'We
throw' (see below Abdullah conjugation) wasn't lost? It was
intervocalic or not at that moment :) ? Same question for other bi-
syllabic forms in the below conjugation ...

Best Regards,
marius
