The majority of the hypotheses postulated so far concerning the origin of this lexeme considers it to be a Slavic innovation which superseded the inherited Proto-Indo-European word. The author argues that current models of Indo-European nominal derivation permit a connection of the Slavic word with the Proto-Indo-European forms for ‛dog’ and ‛cattle’.}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/232926/PDF/Piwowarczyk.pdf}, keywords={etymology, inherited lexicon, Indo-European linguistics}, }
