Kuiper Nasalpräs. 156) shows IE. [[gʷ]]; basis therefore IE. <b class="b2">*slagʷ-</b>. The aspiration in <b class="b3">εἴληφα</b> can be secondary (vgl. Schwyzer 772); perhaps another verb for [[grasp]] (s. <b class="b3">λάφυρον</b>) was involved; also some other formes were influenced by it. the zero grade must be secondary, <b class="b2">*sl̥h₂-</b> would hav got long <b class="b3">α</b>.<br />See also: Weiteres s.
