The database represents the updated text of Julius Pokorny’s Indogermanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch (1959), also IEW, in English Indo-European Etymological Dictionary.
Pokorny’s text is given practically unchanged (only a few obvious typos were corrected), except for some rearrangement of the Material.
Scanned and recognized by George Starostin (Moscow), who has also added the meanings.
Further refurnished and corrected by A. Lubotsky.
