"þahsuz" meaning in Proto-Germanic

See þahsuz in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈθɑx.suz/
Etymology: Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *tótḱ-us, from *tetḱ- (“to weave, braid, add, establish, construct”), likely owing to the badger's propensity to dig and thus construct tunnels. In this case, cognate with Latin texō (“weave, braid, build, compose”), Ancient Greek τίκτω (tíktō), τέχνη (tékhnē), τέκτων (téktōn). However, later scholarship rejects the above relation and, in light of Proto-Celtic *taskos, has been derived from a Proto-Indo-European *toskos (“badger”), which Kroonen considers to be a loanword from some unidentified western European substrate.
