Reconstruction notes

The reconstruction of the past participle is somewhat tenuous. Hypothetically, the Proto-Indo-European form **kʷl̥h₁-tós would have produced Proto-Italic **kʷlā-to-, which would have culminated in Latin **clātus. The linguist Ville Leppänen suggests that Proto-Italic *kʷlā-to- was a pre-Proto-Italic form which then turned into Proto-Italic *kʷeltos.[3]
