Notes
edit

Hittite 𒄿𒋻 (i-tar), a hapax legomenon usually glossed as “way”,[3] is traditionally included here, but after improved scans in recent years this reading has come under scrutiny. It is now considered a misreading for 𒌉𒋻 (DUMU-tar), thus *𒄿𒋻 (*i-tar, “way”) is a ghost word and cannot be used as evidence for reconstructions.[4][5]
