AbstractThis paper examines the entire range of constructions in which the Gothic particle‐(u)hoccurs, demonstrating that its primary employment is within anaphoric (coreferential and iterative) sequential structures as a discourse resumptive particle.

It also places in a new light the status of the Gothicsah/panuhpronoun, which represents a univerbation of Proto‐Indo‐European (PIE) *só/tó‐u kwecomparable to Vedic Sanskrit nonuniverbatedsá u/tám uand Homeric Greektòn (d') aũ, etc., with PIE *(a)w in its normal anaphori
