1.1.3Meaning
The verb is used intransitively in a short clause, i.e. kud=ãk išlukol ‘wherever he išluko-ed’. No meaning is offered by Gusmani 1964a:136 or Gusmani 1980a:72. Yakubovich (pers. comm.) suggests ‘to make sacrifice by burning’. The word could be related to HLuw. /luhanu(wa)-(i)/ ‘to burn down (?)’ and Lyc. B luga-(ti) ‘to overheat, dry out (?)’. This would imply that the lenited laryngeal fell together with the non-lenited one, as it occurs in Lycian (i.e. x and g) from the beginning of the 4th century BCE.
