N. taetha- v. “to fasten, tie” (Category: to Bind)

N. taetha-, v. “to fasten, tie” (Category: to Bind)

A verb in The Etymologies of the 1930s glossed “to fasten, tie”, under the root ᴹ√TAK “fix, make fast” (Ety/TAK). It is clearly based on an ancient causative form *taktā- “to make fixed/fast”, where the ancient k spirantalized and then vocalized and eventually produced the diphthong ae.
