Indo-European Etymological Dictionary

The IEED project is supervised by Alexander Lubotsky.^[2] It aims to accomplish the following goals:

• to compile etymological databases for the individual branches of Indo-European, containing all the words that can be traced back to Proto-Indo-European, and print them in Brill's Leiden Indo-European Etymological Dictionary series,
• to publish those databases free of charge electronically on the Internet, by utilizing Sergei Starostin's STARLING software technology,^[3]
• finally, once the etymological dictionaries of the individual branches have been compiled, to create a new large Indo-European etymological dictionary that will serve as a replacement of Julius Pokorny's outdated but still immensely valuable Indogermanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch.
