sijélo – South Slavic descendant? edit

sijélo (evening party in a village (lit. ‘seating’?)) (Ijekavian form of sélo) is definitely related to sjȅsti*sěsti (cf. ‘sijélo’ in https://hjp.znanje.hr/) and looks pretty much like a descendant of *sědlo, with clear reflex of *-ě- in it – but Derksen doesn’t list any South Slavic descendants (and just assumes that in South and East the etymon merged completely with *selo), it might be that he wasn’t aware of this word. Has anyone seen this etymology proposed in any dictionary or article? Should sijélo be added to the descendants here? // Silmeth @talk 11:22, 25 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
