[zyma]

No, I haven't forgotten. Sorry, though. I haven't been able to come up with anything, but with final exams and papers, traveling, and the board being down, I haven't had a lot of time to think about it. I'll try to have something soon.

<???>
/sɛˈsʲjɛu̯/

[Jackk]

<???>
/sɛˈsʲjɛu̯/

Exciting! Is it a noun, and if so, does it descend from a Latin second declension noun?

[ixals]

Yes, it's a noun. Concerning the declension, I'd answer yes and no.

[Jackk]

Yes, it's a noun. Concerning the declension, I'd answer yes and no.

Hmm, tricky
So, multiple declensions - were there masculine and feminine forms?

[ixals]

Not really multiple declensions. It was not a second declension noun in Latin if I may say so.

[Jackk]

Not really multiple declensions. It was not a second declension noun in Latin if I may say so.

Ah, ok - analogised to masculine in the descendant?

/sɛˈsʲjɛu̯/

Did the Latin ancestor begin <se-/sē->?

[ixals]

Ah, ok - analogised to masculine in the descendant?

Not analogy, another common process

Did the Latin ancestor begin <se-/sē->?

With /s/ yes, but not with those vowels.

[Jackk]

Not analogy, another common process

Derivation?

With /s/ yes, but not with those vowels.

<si->?

[ixals]

Yes to derivation, no to /i/

[Jackk]

Yes to derivation, no to /i/

Was it the suffix <-ius>?
One of <sī-/sa-/sā->?
An umlaut thing with <so-/sō->?

[ixals]

Well, the suffix ended in <-ius>, it was a bit longer than that

And yes, it was one of <sī-/sa-/sā->, the middle one to be exact.
