As proposed in Matisoff 1972:72 (“The Loloish tonal split revisited”), the unique initial cluster in PLB *ʔwyik is to be explained by a disyllabic prototype *ʔu‑(y)ik, where the first syllable is from #385 PTB *d‑bu‑s HEAD / CENTER / SENIOR MALE RELATIVE / UNCLE, an honorific morpheme frequently occurring in Tibeto-Burman words for elder kinsmen.
