SCHOLARLY DISAGREEMENT
DISPUTE POSITIONS THAT CITE THIS SOURCE
Is the deepest brightness root *kand- or *(s)kend-?
The graph preserves both published analyses. The newer Merriam-Webster route uses *(s)kend- and explains candēre through a zero-grade stative formation; the prior *kand- route remains proposed.
Headword candeo and existing proposed *kand- routePreserves the older reviewed Latin base and its separately qualified deeper analysis.
Is *kand- a secure endpoint?
No. The Latin candēre family is attested, but its deeper reconstructed root and cognate set remain analysis-dependent.
etymological notesThe Latin lexical record does not license promotion of one deeper *kand- analysis as settled.
