TheIndogermanisches etymologisches Wörterbuch (IEW; "Indo-European Etymological Dictionary") was published in 1959 by the Austrian-Czech comparative linguist and Celtic languages expertJulius Pokorny. It is an updated and slimmed-down reworking of the three-volumeVergleichendes Wörterbuch der indogermanischen Sprachen (1927–1932, byAlois Walde and Julius Pokorny).
Both of these works aim to provide an overview of the lexical knowledge of theProto-Indo-European language accumulated through the early 20th century. TheIEW is now significantly outdated, especially as it was conservative even when it was written, ignoring the now integrallaryngeal theory, and hardly including anyAnatolian material.
