1. For sure that this a bad joke Piotr, especially when in our last
discussions you was faraway to have the right arguments.

2. I didn't talk about Jasanoff => wrong assumption wrong conclusion

3. I'm not the first that link the semantism of dHeh1- with that one
of dHeh1-i- => do you need a bibliography on this subject?

4. By the way, The pattern -eu -eh2 -em was proposed for the first
