Commentary
Philological commentary
| n1 | Ching claims that this word can only be restored as *wrätsaiseṣe 'pertaining to the reception' (Ching 2010: 267. For wrättsaise, cf. Kucha 0190 (Ching 2010: 312). |
|---|---|
| n2 | palakwante appears in the same context as *opiye, so it most likely is a kind of foodstuff, |
