Georges-Jean Pinault. 2000. "Védique <dámu:nas->, Latin <dominus> et
l'origine du suffixe de Hoffmann". _Bulletin de la Société de
Linguistique de Paris_ 95: 61-117.

Thank you

Karl Hoffmann reconstructed the "Possessivsuffix" *-hen-/*-hn- back in
1955. In 1972, Eric Hamp proposed the analysis of *abon- as *h2ap-hon-
and argued, from the voicing effect, that the laryngeal was specifically
*h3.
some Greek derivatives like
<oio:nós> 'eagle, large bird of prey' < *h2owi-h3n-o-, literally
something like 'capable of lifting a sheep'

You mean *h2owi-h3n-o-

long o: out of H3 ?

Something missing ?
