Again on New Persian ālufta
Abstract This paper presents a re-examination of the well-known New Persian lexeme, which is traditionally adduced with regard to Skt. lubh ‑ as a presumed Iranian reflex of PIE * leub h ‑ ‘to be in love; confused’, as well as for postulating the existence of forms with PIE *- l ‑, allegedly preserved in New Iranian avoiding the effect of the Aryan Rhotacism.
