In the same spirit of service, I have added an additional file in
the List's Files section (folder name: 'PIE roots'; file
name: 'Pokorny with laryngeals.doc') which contains the links to yet
another PIE roots database.
The database represents the updated text of J. Pokorny's
_Indogermanisches Etymologisches Wörterbuch_, scanned, machine-
translated into English, and finally recognized (with some
omissions -- e.g., many of the meanings are still given in German!)
by G. Starostin, who has also added some new meanings. The database
was further refurnished and corrected by A. Lubotsky. Pokorny's text
is given practically unchanged, except for some rearrangement of the
material. The modified and new text portions are marked in yellow.
The most notable change is the incorporation of laryngeals in
Pokorny's entries (alternative forms of Pokorny's roots, with
reconstructed laryngeals, are shown within brackets after their
respective forms with no laryngeals).
This is something that was still missing from the List's resources,
wasn' it?
Happy reading!
