Yes. It's probably worthwhile to note that a hypothetical 'eu' is not related to '-eu'. It would be 'leu' instead.Ashtâr Balînestyâr wrote:Was -eu a noun in PG?

I’m going to try the obvious. Is it *būaną ‘to dwell, to reside’?

Was a nasal consonant lost in the middle of that morpheme?
[ˈaʃt̪əɹ ˈbalɨˌnɛsʲtʲəɹ]
Re: Guess the Word in Germanic Conlangs
Not really, but sorta? The nasal became a nasal vowel that then colored the l in front.Ashtâr Balînestyâr wrote:Was a nasal consonant lost in the middle of that morpheme?
