==============
If my idea that the Hoffman suffix *H3n is
actually m?_n
it's logical that this suffix should generate
something long in Central and Eastern PIE,
because these languages pre-glottalize
(according to me again)
So we have to expect that *m?n
becomes O:-n in East and Central PIE
and remains short in Western O?-n- > On?-
(feature is post-glottalized)
What happens in Germanic with Hoffman's suffix ?
What examples have we got ?
