Hi!
I am stuck in the possible etymology of the proto-Celtic root:
koligno: holly tree (a sacred plant for the Celts), from which Matasovic points out a possible evolution to konigno (kol- into kon-). Is this evolution from n into l common in Celtic words?
Also, according to accepted rules, the evolution kolign>koin would be feasible?
Any advice or additional examples are welcome
