Lest readers think I am angling for an "A" from the Professor, I do differ
with one small part of Piotr's comments below: I do not think the IIr words
for 'give' derive from *re:(H)- but rather from a related *re:-, the long
vowel of which was original rather than occasioned by the former presence of
a 'laryngeal'.

This *re:- means, primarily, 'move downward' = 'fall'.

You deserve E.

ReH1 means "backward".

A.
