Ispadanje *g ispred *m u praslavenskome

This paper proposes a new sound rule for Proto-Slavic, according to which *g (from PIE *g, *gw, *gh, and *gwh) was lost before *m. This development was posterior to Winter’s law and the merger of voiced and aspirated stop in Slavic. The operation of the rule is illustrated by new etymologies of four Slavic words: *ama, *jama ‘hole, pit’, *těmę ‘sinciput’, *mąžь ‘husband, man’, and *remy ‘leather belt’.U ovom se radu predlaže novo glasovno pravilo u praslavenskome, prema kojemu je *g (od ie. *g, *gw, *gh i *gwh) nestalo ispred *m. Ta se promjena odvila nakon djelovanja Winterova zakona i stapanja zvučnih i aspiriranih okluziva u pretpovijesti slavenskoga. Djelovanje je navedenog pravila potvrđeno novim etimologijama četiriju praslavenskih riječi: *ama, *jama ‘rupa, jama’, *těmę ‘tjeme’, *mąžь ‘muž’ i *remy ‘remen’
