Commentary

Linguistic commentary

n1taṣälle: the vocalism is archaic (for classical taṣalle).
n3yikṣiye: if interpreted correctly, the i-vocalism in the first syllable is a late feature (for classical yäkṣiye).

Philological commentary

n2(ma)lkwero: the o-mobile in this word is notable, but mälkwerä is indeed attested: PK AS 9C a1 m(ä)lkwerä.
