Gothic character 𐍈 ⋍ WH < QV 𒆪 QÚ KU ⇔ GÜN / SOL > HEL 𓇳

Interesting character

The simple reading being

𐍈 ⋍ O ⋍ Ω ⋍ ω ⋍ WH/HW ⋍ ƕ ⋍ 𓇳

The simple reading seems so pure and natural:

𐍈𐌴𐌹𐍄𐍃 white

After over a dozen centuries of sound shifts and corruption it became almost imperceivable that the original reading might have been considerably different, albeit anchestral:

Let us open-mindedly investigate alternative readings:

𐍈𐌰𐍂𐌾𐌹𐍃 > welches which,what
𐍈𐌰𐍂𐌾𐌹𐍃 qvar… > quel which,what

𐍈 ⋍ Q ⋍ QV ⋍ qua > who / jour 🌣
𐍈 ⋍ Q ⋍ QV @ qyn ⋍ gün ⋍ гүн ⋍ sun 🌣
𐍈 ⋍ O ⋍ Ω ⋍ ω ≠ س ሠ Ш SHAN Sun 🌣
𐍈 ⋍ 𐤏 ⋍ ס ⋍ Θ ⋍ Thara > Sarah solar 🌣
𐍈 ⋍ 𓇳 ⋍ Hara Houra 𓉔 𓄿 𓇳 𓏥 🌣
𐍈 ⋍ 𓇳 ⋍ •Swuahel

The QV component becomes evident in

𒆪 ⋍ 𐍈

𒆪𒅖 /kuis/ who PIE *kʷís ++
𐍈𐌰𐌳 /•kuod/ what

𐌰𐍈𐌰 awha? aqua/river/water/wasser ambivalent ORTHOgraphy!
𐌰𐌹𐍈𐍃 equus > aiƕs horse
𐍈𐌴 qua how, some!how

𓂧 𓎼 𓁹 | look (at) | δäuge ⋍ zeuge zeige 𐍃𐌰𐌹𐍈𐌰𐌽 siehe sehen

Suddenly previously unexplained words become evident:

𐍈𐌰𐌹𐍂𐌽𐌴𐌹 κρανίον kraníon, “skull” cerebral че́реп גולגלתא qarqap̄ṯā

𐌽𐌴𐍈𐌰 neara𓇳 < nächster next inseque

𐌰𐌹𐍈𐌰 ayqua ⇔ куак quaq® 𓂓𓄿𓂓𓄿𓆰 ҡыуаҡ qïwaq bush

𐍈𐌴𐌹𐌻𐌰 weile/while hour,while,time
𐍈𐌴𐌹𐌻𐌰 qhoura : hour
𐍈𐌴𐌹𐌻𐌰 theira⋍time

While the last reading seems too far off, 𐍈 having a t component is less xenobic for people familiar with the strange sounds humans are capable of producing. In fact the chinese "Quetschlaute" j,q,x have a dangling ᵈᵟᵗ

Many words with 𐍈 can be better explained with t component:

𐍈𐍉𐍄𐌰 wut? threat
𐍈𐍉𐍄𐌰 droht : threat

𐍈𐌹𐌻𐍆𐍄𐍂𐌾𐍉𐌼 > Tharbuterium > табут tabut ताबूत tābūt تَابُوت tābūt (coffin)
𐍈𐌹𐌻… σορός sorós Sarg

𐍈𐌹𐌻𐍆𐍄𐍂𐌾𐍉𐌼 qurƒter 'cursed' coffin ?
𐍈𐌹𐌻𐍆𐍄𐍂𐌾𐍉𐌼 qurƒter 𓈎 𓂋 𓋴 𓏏 𓊭 cursed:coffin

𐌰𐍆𐍈𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰𐌽 af.sapacan < suffocate ?

Often the simple reading is found in one branch of Germanic, while the old/complete/complex reading is found in another:

𐌰𐍆𐍈𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰𐌽 abwürpgen > abwürgen
𐌰𐍆𐍈𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰𐌽 of.qvrpin > curb off (with 𐌰 a⇨ar)

𐌰𐍆𐍈𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰𐌽 ab.qvapjen > abquetschen
𐌰𐍆𐍈𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰𐌽 ab.qvanpjen > quench off (with 𐌰 a⇨aín)

At times the simple reading is found in one branch of Germanic, while the old/complete/complex reading is found nowhere yet makes sense:

𐌰𐍄𐍃𐌰𐌹𐍈𐌰𐌽 at.sehen ansehen (look)
𐌰𐍄𐍃𐌰𐌹𐍈𐌰𐌽 ad.sequen seek [follow] (look)
𐌱𐌹𐍃𐌰𐌹𐍈𐌰𐌽 be.sehen ≠ be.seeken ⇔ search (look for)

𐍈𐌰𐍃𐍃𐌴𐌹 whasseι √whet? √wetz? severity
𐍈𐌰𐍃𐍃𐌴𐌹 qvussei kovuus severity (Estonian: kõva.sei hard.sein)

Or words receive a deeper history:
𐍈𐌰𐌸𐍉 whatu > Estonian vaht, Ludian vuahte < •qvatov < aquatop ( foam @ water )
𐍈𐌰𐌸𐍉 קֶצֶף ketsef кафк хаф xaf kef chaff (foam) ⇔ þváttr t'water : wash

Back to our beautiful simple pure white:

𐍈𐌴𐌹𐍄𐍃 white

𐍈𐌴𐌹𐍄𐍃 «qveit?» is there any place on earth that supports a Q component in white?
Not quite: ақ-white @aquatic aquavit? gwyn[tos?] кӏайн ḳajn čaɣan keʻokeʻo ;)
Gaulish: *qwindos close enough, see 𐌹 for n component in 'ain'
la *qwindos > le qwains λε υκαίνω λευκαίνω

Opening a pandoras box of ambivalent ORTHOgraphy:
