Chinese comparandum

越 OC *gi̯wɑ̆t, GSR #303e ‘transgress, extend’; Schuessler 2007:596 *wat; B & S 2011: *ɢʷat {[ɢ]ʷat}; Mand. yuè.
歲 OC *si̯wɑd, GSR #346a ‘year, harvest, planet Jupiter’; Schuessler 2007:485 *swats; B & S 2011: *s-qʷʰat-s; Mand. suì.

Baxter and Sagart (1988:60, ap. Schuessler 2007:596) compare 越 *ɢʷat {[ɢ]ʷat} ‘extend’, Mand. yuè with 遠 ‘far’ *C.ɢʷanʔ {C.ɢʷa[n]ʔ}, Mand. yuǎn. However, Matisoff (HPTB:452) relates 遠 yuǎn directly to #622 PTB *g-wəy-n FAR (q.v.).
