PROTO: *HrǝŁ_wĔ
MEANING: a k. of tree
COMMENT: For PEC we may reconstruct variants *HrǝŁ_wĔ and *rHǝŁ_wĔ (the latter would be better for explaining the PN form and PL *raƛ̣:(ʷ) - not *Harƛ̣:(ʷ) as would be otherwise expected). The EC-WC comparison is phonetically satisfactory, but there are some semantic doubts: in PEC it is obviously some coniferous tree, while in PWC it is a leaf-bearing tree (asp, ash-tree or willow).
