#3487 PTB *(p/b)ay BREAK OUT / BREAK OFF / HATCH

The basic meaning of this etymon seems to be ‘break out’. It is reconstructed in STC #254 as *be ~ *pe ‘broken; break’, though the present reconstruction with *‑ay seems preferable.

The Mizo form with final glottal stop suggests a secondary allofam with the ‑s suffix.
