The Velars + w in Sanskrit

Key Points

The research aims to explore the phenomenon of the disappearance of 'w' after initial velars in Sanskrit.
Review of historical linguistic examples from various authors.
Comparison of conflicting views on the phenomenon.
Examples of disappearance of 'w' after initial velars are presented.
Persson's objections to this phenomenon are discussed but found unsubstantiated.

Abstract

For examples of the disappearance of w after an initial velar, cf. Zupitza Germ. Gutt. 55 f.; Brugmann Sächs. Ber. 1897. 36 f.; Hoffmann BB 18. 149 ff. Against this view stands Persson Beitr. 126 f. and elsewhere. His objections are not sustained by the examples.
