Do you have an opinion on this?
I'm not sure whether this topic is known with regard to (I call it) "mutations" in general. It is noticeable that the ‘basic words’ if we assume that the letters are prefixes (or whatever without belonging to the base word) are subject to a vowel swap from "o" to "a" or vice versa. Not all words, but too many to ignore this phenomenon.
Are there any theories or topics on this? Is there a language or dialect from the Indo-European branch that has such a vowel exchange?
I'll add a few examples
dor dar
dol dal
kooiin koaiin
chor char
chol chal
kol kal
kor kar
lol lal
dam dom
