• Armstrong, Lilias E. (1940). The Phonetic and Tonal Structure of Kikuyu, p. 363. Rep. 1967. (Also in 2018 by Routledge).

From Proto-Italic *rotā , from Proto-Indo-European *Hróth2-eh2, from *Hreth2- ("to run, roll"). The exact derivational pathway from this root is disputed:

• De Vaan^[1] and Nussbaum^[2] derive Latin rota from a simple nominalization of the feminine singular of the agentive adjective *Hroth2ós .
• Stifter, also starting off from an agentive adnominal *Hroth2ós , supposes that Latin rota instead derives from the neuter collective/plural.^[3]
• Höfler^[4] and Yates,^[5] by contrast, take Latin rota as an *(o)-éh2 formation *(H)rotéh2, and posit Sanskrit रथ (ratha) as from *(H)rot-h2-ós , a possessive derivative of the feminine word.
