πŒŠπŒ€πŒ‡πŒ€πŒƒ

Oscan

Etymology

Uncertain. Within Sabellic, it is perhaps to be connected with Umbrian cehefi (β€œto take, get”). More broadly, it may be connected to Latin cohum, though De Vaan suggests that such a relationship is only possible if a phonotactically impermissible Proto-Indo-European root *khβ‚‚gΚ°- is reconstructed. According to the LIV, it may reflect Proto-Indo-European *kΓ‘gΚ°-e-ti, from the root *kagΚ°- (β€œto hold”).[1] The term is probably ultimately of substrate origin.[2]
