Comments: BSl. *drug- may in principle reflect *drugʰ- or *dʰrugʰ-, but to my knowledge there are no cognates outside Balto-Slavic.

Notes:

\{1\} In the 18th century, we find forms such as dresz, dreś, drez and dreść (Sɫawski SEJP I: 163). According to Bańkowski (2000: 297), may be based on a plural dreszcze from *dreżca < *drьž-ьca.
