SCHOLARLY DISAGREEMENT
DISPUTE POSITIONS THAT CITE THIS SOURCE
opencontextproposed
Does knowing securely descend from cutting or splitting?
No. The *skei- comparison is published, but the exact formation of Latin scīre and the semantic bridge from separating to knowing remain disputed.
Root skei-, section 2Publishes the proposed discern-and-know family without making it certain.
opencontextproposed
Is nice securely related to a root meaning cut?
The Latin knowing family is secure, but the further comparison of scīre with a cutting/separating root is only proposed.
Root skei-, section 2Publishes the proposed discern-from-separate semantic bridge.
opencontextproposed
Does Latin scīre securely descend from *skei- “cut, split”?
No single analysis is secure. A discern-from-separating bridge is plausible, but the formation and semantic development remain disputed.
Root skei-, section 2Publishes the comparison as one reviewed position.
