Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/-Hō

• *-h₃enh₂-, *-h₃onh₂-[1]
• *-h₃en-

In literature this morpheme might be referred to as "Hoffmann's suffix".

It is often reconstructed with a *h₃ on the basis of the voice assimilation in the word *h₂ábon- < *h₂ep-h₃on- (“river”), although some authorities might also reconstruct an unspecified laryngeal, *H. Sometimes identified with the root *h₃enh₂- (“onerate”).
