@Kwékwlos: Do you have any sources for this etymology? —*i̯óh₁n̥C[5] 08:12, 17 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

@*i̯óh₁n̥C[5], I've reworked this and *puta (two). I think Kwékwlos went too far in calling this "cognate", which implies that the words for "one" and "two" were once the same thing. Likewise for *mi (three) and *mu (six), and *yə (four) and *ya (eight). ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 18:01, 14 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
