Alvin, you are showing much courage in trying to go countercurrent, in "refusing to obey" and to argue against "the normal methods of historical linguistics" which is the present day method of the linguistic Establishment to which Piotr and his followers adhere. Some authors have shown black on white the evident concordances between Albanian and Etruscan. But the credo of the followers of the "normal method" is that the Illyro-Albanian continuity is but a purely imaginative and chauvinistic belief professed by Albanians.

Dear Piotr !
I really appreciate your comments of what I have written about.
Since a single person could not have come up whith all these suggestions it
is not hard to understand that those were not mine.
Since it is often spoken about them, where am I going to find a better
place to put them into the prove if not here ?
Indo-europeanian methodics are little known among Albanians.

Do you have any comments on:

Theti <--> Deti (the Sea)
Odysess, Ulise <--> udh-, ull- (road, way, travel)
Aphrodite <--> afro, afër (near) + ditë, dite, dita (day) (or how it is
otherwise known as the "star of the morning", which appears early in the
morning, the planet Venus, Afërdita).

Does "potnja" stand for "lady" in PIE ?

Regards
Alvin

P.S. I promissed to somebody - who felt very ashamed of being Albanian
because of what I have written here - that I would mention that there are
Albanians who think different.
He is one of them, but I don´t know his real name, only K. Vogli.
K. Vogli I hope to have lindered your pain a little bit.
