Possibly G <ear>/<e:ar>, or Hittite <eￜhar, eￜhnaￜ>, and Sanskrit<asrk, asnas>, etc., an r/n stem something like *esH2r, *esH2n- (in Pokorny,*e(:)sr(g_w), *@snes, 343.) -- the Latin word's been befunged somewhat anyway (-is, -inis doesn't seem normal for L) but it might go there, more likely than with <haima>.I was guessing a more archaic nominative singular than <sanguis> would simply be the stem + -s: *sanguins. That was how I was going to have it in my "alternate xeno-latin" :) though maybe I ought to go off and find another PIE root for "blood" and construct an Italic version ....
Well, the older form than <sanguis> is <sanguen>, parallel to, say, <unguen>..
