Commentary

The attested form is too fragmentary to be amenable to an etymological analysis. The sequence to- appears also in tokua (VR·18), toutiopouos (NM·7), tou (BG·8), toutas (NO·21.2), tove (TI·19), tośokote (VC·1.2).
Regarding BS·3.2 see Hamp 1989, Eska & Weiss 1996: 289-291, Eska & Evans 2009: 35.
