In this context three new comparisons were presented: 1. Tocharian A kuk, "heel"; B kuke id. ~ Old Church Slavonic k7k7nja "Schienbein, Unterschenkel", plus Middle Welsh (13th cent.) kukyn, (14th cent.) kygwng/kygwn/kygwg, Welsh cwgn, pl. cygnau, "joint, knuckle; knot or joint on stem or root of plant; knot, knur (in wood); link in chain"; Irish cocung "chain"; 2. Toch. B lasto "belonging to branches of a shrub" ~ Slavic *list7 "leaf", plus hypothetical Baltic *lišta(s), reconstructed on the basis of Fenno-Volgaic *lešte "leaf"; 3. Toch. B ri:ye, A ri "city" < *drewyo- ~ East Slavic *derv6nja "village", both originally "wooden". |
