| May 24, 2021 at 9:03 | comment | added | Tristan | isn't the question asking about proving that Avestan isn't derived from Vedic, not vice versa? This answer seems to be backwards | |
| May 23, 2021 at 19:33 | comment | added | Alex B. | @fdb well, of course, it is a matter of convention. That being said, I have seen both j or ǰ with a háček, but I have never come across ĵ with a circumflex, so I was curious who exactly uses/used this rather unconventional ĵ with a circumflex. But I'm not going to argue with you since Indo-Iranian is your forte, not mine (and it's good to see you back btw!) | |
| May 23, 2021 at 17:45 | comment | added | fdb | @AlexB. Whether you write j or ǰ is purely a matter of convention. The standard Avestan grammar by Hoffmann/Forssman uses the former. | |
| May 23, 2021 at 14:31 | comment | added | Nikkū | user6726@ how do we know Proto Indo-Aryan had ĵ ? | |
| May 22, 2021 at 23:31 | comment | added | Alex B. | Whose reconstruction of PIA has this ĵ ? Typically it’s ǰ (with a háček), see e.g. Lubotsky 2018 degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110542431-031/html | |
| May 22, 2021 at 23:07 | comment | added | user6726 | Proto Indo-Aryan had ĵ, the reflex of the PIE palatal. | |
| May 22, 2021 at 22:43 | comment | added | Nikkū | How do we know that PIE had a *ĵʰ, *ĵ, and earlier voiced palatal plus dental stop e.g. PIE *mr̥ǵt ? Or should i ask this as a separate question ? | |

| May 22, 2021 at 18:05 | comment | added | Janus Bahs Jacquet | What is *ĵ(ʰ) meant to be exactly? PIE has *g̑ (also written *ĝ or *ɡ́; PIA has *j́ and *ǰ (can’t type that properly on my phone, but háček should replace dot, not be above it). Neither has *ĵ in any transcription system I’m aware of. | |
