Words beginning with L

Volume 5 of the Hittite Etymological Dictionary puts the total work past the mid-point of the alphabetical inventory of the Hittite language. It covers not only words with the initial L, additions and corrections to the earlier volumes, but also the complete indices to comparands in other languages, thus opening up volume 1-5 to other philologies (Indic, Greek, Germanic, etc.).
