Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/snopъ
Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Possibly from Proto-Indo-European *(s)neh₁- (“to spin, to weave”) + *-opъ. Compare Bulgarian вързо́п (vǎrzóp, “bundle”), Macedonian врзоп (vrzop, “bundle”) from Proto-Slavic *vьrzati (“to tie, to bind”). It may be possible to identify the ending with that of synonymous Proto-Germanic *skauba- (“sheaf, bundle”), and a kindred combination may be present in Old High German snuoba, snuaba (“band, lace”) and Gothic preserved in Spanish eslabón (“link of a chain”), minus s-mobile in Proto-Italic *nopnā reflected in diminutive Latin numella (“a collar to impede movement”).[1]
The development of accentuation in the dialects of the Galician group speaks in favor of the reconstruction of the u-stem: *snòpъ, gen. *snopù.
