A note of Hittite da-ah-hi

SUMMARY

It has  long  been   suggested that   the  Hittite verb da-ah-hi 'I take' is to  be connected with  the  Indo-European root *do- ' to  give'. (See Friedrich, 1952, 201;   Kronasser,   1966,  533-534;  Kammenhuber, 1969,  235-236).  The  pur­pose   of  this  paper is to  support this suggestion but  in  a  slightly different way  than  it has  been  supported in  the  past.
