All the Baltic derived words for /fear/ (nouns or adjectives)
are 'derivations' from *bHoih- - the verbal root

in what language???
Why do you persist in writing *bhoiH-?
The PIE root is *bho:(H)i-.
If you are claiming that a Baltic root had the form *bho:iH-, with
metathesis of the 'laryngeal', state this once and for all.
Please answer this question and stop dodging the issue.

*bHoih-m-
*bHoih-u-
*bHih-eh2-
*bHoih-l-
there is even an extension from dH-
*bHoih-dH-s
So I don't see how baidyti can be *<Noun>-dHh1-

So what?
Formants are regularly added to verbal roots to produce nouns and
adjectives.
Explain in detail, if you will, why that has anything at all to do with your
analysis of
bai-dy-ti.
