in AHD4's Apx I (IE Roots) you will find two entries,
kwel-¹ (To revolve, move around, sojourn, dwell), which is given as the ultimate root of telo- ; and
kwel-² (Far (in space and time)), as the ultimate root of tele-. Does this mean that there are two separate, unrelated roots; or are the two related somehow other than their anglicized renderings?
