============ ===; z3 is formally equivalent to Semitic z-r.

On the basis of IE *stre:-, because of the long vowel, I reconstruct RHE (aspirated nasals and R could lengthen the following vowel): SE-RHE, 'bodily fluids-fall down', a fairly accurate characterization of ejaculation. As additional proof, we know that z3 was vocalized as /si/ by the cuneiform transcriptions of Egyptian names.==========What is your source ?***My own work as detailed at my website.***I am asking for a scientific source.Not Alice in wonderland's dreams.=========
