Aha. And so it's business as usual for you.
However, in the equation with
(PPerm. >)Finn. vuosi/vuotta "year"
PIE *wet-/*ut- "year"

PItal. *atn-os> Lat. annus/Goth. aþn- "year"

and (Møller)
semit. Y.-d prep.,
assyr. eda:nu, ada:nu 'Zeitpunkt'
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/cybalist/message/51110

the odds are the exchange took place on the south of the Baltic,
whatever the details.

Finnish vuosi must be from vo:t- with long o:
It can't be from *at-
and it can be from *wet if *wo:t- existed in Baltic ?
