This is a brilliant idea (has to have been to make me come out of lurkerdom
<g>)

>   1. birch (the tree)
Aredos: frécs < PIE *bherg'-s
         Carashán: bercea < Gmc *berkana
         Puesodán: biercán < Gmc *berkana

>   2. werewolf / lycanthrope of some variety
Aredos: duicútiános "two skinned"- can mean any shapechanger.
         Carashán: decoseu < duicútiános
         Puesodán: vargo < Gmc *warg-

>   3. to save (money)
Aredos: reclépáre < PIE *kle:p "to hold"
         Carashán: cazanar < Qaashu qazney "to store"
         Puesodan: rejuebar < reclépáre

>   4. to conquer
Aredos: fúzíre < PIE *bho:udhi- "victory"
         Carashán: affodir < VA. affuzíre
         Puesodán: afuzir  < VA: affuzíre

>   5. motif
Aredos: argenturitás (lit. "silver coating")
         Carashán: argentoritát (reborrowing, the reflex of argenturitás
survives as ajeitorát "foil")
         Puesodán: argentoridad (as above)
