Hello,


1. When Gramkrelidze & Ivanov said that Tocharians reached China by
travelling through
Mesopotamia, how can they explain that the Tocharians had so many
Finno-Ugric influences?

2. I've ever heard that Albanian is a restant from the Illyrian languages,
but when I see the
the Illyrian rooth that means 'water', I see no connections with the
Albanian word 'ujë'.
Could you give me some linguistic proofs that Albanian is an Illyrian
language?


Thanks for the information about the Germanic languages and I'm very sorry
for my e-mail yesterday but I had some troubles with my computer. HAPPY NEW
YEAR!
