#2712 PTB *tuːk THICK / DEEP

Reconstructed mesoroots below:

Languages like Ao and Zeme have a sibilant fricative or affricate initial, although this may be chalked up to a widespread tendency to develop frication of t before u, as in Japanese.

Vowel length is reconstructed because of the WB rhyme ‑uik.
