Proto-Indo-European

Root

*pekʷ- (imperfective)^[1]^[2]^[3]

to cook
to ripen

Reconstruction

It has been suggested^[4]^[5] that Hittite and Lydian terms which point to a root *pekʷ- (“to pound, crush, crack (grain)”) may preserve the original meaning of the PIE root, which later shifted in meaning to “to prepare food, cook” by the ancestor of the non-Anatolian branches.
