He talked too about the lost of laryngeal in baidyti (see Metatony in
Baltic)
What do you think that he assumed when he talked about this?


Finally I don't care who assumes what:
-> if can give you OTHER examples that show you that the final
laryngeal is lost in compounds, this is enough to explain the
accentual pattern in baidyti.
