TY - JOUR TI - LUBOTSKY’S AND BEEKES’ LAWS, PIE *(H)r , *(H)i(V)-, *a SOME OTHER LARYNGEAL MATTERS AU - Woodhouse, Robert TI - LUBOTSKY’S AND BEEKES’ LAWS, PIE *(H)r , *(H)i(V)-, *a SOME OTHER LARYNGEAL MATTERS AB - A recent bimoraic analysis of the properties of (late) PIE laryngeals supports Rix’s theory of PIE CRHC (with implications for CRHV) in Greek and Beekes’ law of laryngeal vocalization following initial resonant. Beekes’ difficulties involving PIE *r are eliminated by demonstrating that Latin and Vedic, unlike Hittite, Greek and Armenian, always distinguish between PIE *rHC- and PIE *HrHC-. Lubotsky’s partly related law of laryngeal loss in Indo-Iranian is found to be supported by twelve (partly amended) etymologies out of Lubotsky’s original fourteen plus one new one. Alternatives are essayed for etymologies containing PIE *a proposed in refutation of these laws. Accentually conditioned voicing by *h3 is further promoted.
