I compare :
Latin lassus to Arabic laghab "to be tired" : hence H2
Latin Lentis to Arabic lax "slow" : hence H1
My question for Latin *lab-or is more about the H1 ou H2.
I disagree with a connection of lab with any of the above words.
CF. Arabic &ab-d "worker, servant, slave".
LAtin may be from H2-l-ab
And my next question was about the -b- from *b or *bh in Latin ?
