I have to say, I'm stumped currently. I don't think the exact etymology of Pèi has been determined, though, so I suppose I'll try to do that. Is it descended from an adjective in Classical Latin?

Did this adjective begin with <pV->?

Houx's antecessor was not three or more syllables long.

Thank you for the clarification!

Is Houx descended from or at least related to fuscus?

Was the masculine nominative singular form of the Classical Latin adjective three or more syllables long? which adjective? The one Houx is descended from. Sorry, I guess I assumed that, because my last few questions were about that, it would be clear which adjective I meant. Houx 's antecessor was ...

Is Houx descended from an adjective in Classical Latin?

Was the vowel of the first syllable in Classical Latin rounded?

Is it related to fugāx?

the term typically used is “minor syllable” (and “major syllable”). This specific arrangement with limited vowels reminds me of a language I made a couple years ago where minor syllables are limited to [C/(C)[R/V]] and only allow the vowels /a i/ in those syllables

Very acceptable in Spanish. Mi desayuno de hoy. Depends what he's asking. [...] Well, I would also accept a more explicitly double possession with an NP: el desayuno de hoy de Elvira, el desayuno de hoy de las enfermeras . It's a rather uncommon construction to use though, because typically the hea...

Does -ent- descend from a Latin suffix? If so, was it a verbal suffix?

(it got contaminated tho)

Given this, I’d recommend figuring out -ou, or Houx mean first and then the meaning of the word as a whole.

Would knowing the meanings of the other two words help in deducing the origin of <haibb->?

Probably not imo

Was it any of <fabrica>, <fabula/fabella> or <factura>?

If not, did it contain any labial consonants except the initial <f>?
