I suspected that the origin of the PIE adjectives formed with the PIE
sufix -uko have appeared from older PIE verbal constructions maybe
initially 2 distinct words) based on *h1euk- and I'm trying to find a
trace of such verbal compounds
Same pattern can be applied to different other adjectival&noun
suffixes (see -dH- formations where the original verbal root 'to set,
to place, to keep' is very visible too)
We clearly have here verbal compounds that preceeded the formation of
the related adjectives based on the suffixes originated from that
verbal roots
So please to try to find VV traces too...because is the missing link
here

P.S. and to go to my final ideea:
...maybe finally, I mean initially (not in PIE, of course, but
Earlier) we didn't have adjectives AT ALL...we have had only nouns &
verbs (and some verbal constructions used to describe different
properties) and seems that the PIE structure is not so faraway from
that initial situation
Based on 'this extremism', we will be also obliged, as a logical
deduction to derived finally each PIE suffix from a PIE root ...
