This 'river' word comes from the word for 'water'
with reduplication. The sequence xkYw > xpY between
vowels. This is spread throughout the paradigm. The
word forms a derivative in -o:n. which happens to
undergo sound changes in different IE languages. The
meaning of the words isn't certain; each can mean
'river' or 'water'.
xakYú+s -w+[vowel+tone]
xaxkYú+s xx,pY+[vowel+tone]
That is derived from:
xaxakYw+
xaxkYw+
xaxpY+
and forms:
xaxpY+ón.+ xx,pYn.+[vowel+tone]
To various languages:
