Proto-Slavic
Etymology
- According to Kapović, *ja derives from Proto-Indo-European *éǵ(h₂), while jazъ derives from *eǵHóm.
- Kortlandt, responding to Kapović, derives jàzъ from Proto-Balto-Slavic *ēˀźun, from Proto-Indo-European *eǵHóm, and rejects *ja as secondary
- Olander similarly reconstructs only a single early Proto-Slavic form, *ˈēzu, to yield later *ja̋zъ, *já
