PROTO: *lĕχ_V / *lēχV
MEANING: chain, bracelet
COMMENT: Reconstructed for the PEC level. The root is mostly preserved within compounds (for the most part with *kwīlʡi 'hand' q.v.), which explains the vacillations in vowel length and tenseness (the original form was probably tense - *lĕχ_V, but could become lax after the lax *kwīlʡi).
