#760 PTB *p-(l/y)ap WING / FEATHER

The Tamangic forms have medial ‑y‑, which appears to be secondary. It is possible that this ‑y‑ derives from earlier prefixal *s‑ (see Benedict 1943, Secondary Infixation in Lepcha). Note the similar alternation between l‑ and y‑ in #695 PTB *lak HAND/LIMB and #699 PTB *d‑yak HAND / ARM / LEAF.

There is apparently no connection #2588 PTB *(p/b)yam FLY (v.).
