IV -iet, -ieic, and chongniu Div. 3/4 finals (which occur only after grave initials). After acute initials, reflexes of OC *-et and *-at have merged in Div. III, therefore some of the series under rime no. 21 *-at may have been OC *-et. MC -at, -aic normally derive from *-ret, *-re(t)s, but can also derive from OC *-rat, *-ra(t)s due to a convergence tendency in the QYS. For LHan, ch6ngniu Div. 3/4 items (QYS -jiat 3/4) could be written -iet or -iat; I write -iat because this is parallel to the breaking of *-ot to LHan *-uat. 225 20 oeM *-et, *-e(t)s fj ~.:g~ (1) (GSR 268-348) 20-1 = K. 279 Mand.
