Sorry, Alex, he doesn't say that:

<<Nu este o exagerare sa spunem ca cel putin in anumite privinte
Romana se apropie de Sanscrita la fel de mult ca si de Latina.>>

<<There is no exaggeration for us to say that, at least from certain
points of view, the Romanian language is as close to Sanskrit
as to Latin.>>

But pay heed to the initial meanings of it ("festgestampfte
Erde + Estrich", remember? :)

Oh, c'mon, Alex, you're better than that! What on earth
should Jordanes's "tarabostes" (or thorabostes or strabostes)
have in common with "terra" (or Rum. "tzara" for that matter)?

>You say thracian "Zalmos"= helmet.

Pardon? Who said that? Is that for sure? Have "Zamol-" and "zemelen-"
meanwhile been discarded, along with "Zelmo- & -zelmis"? :-)

>Have you thought that Zal is not a helmet but, it means "God"?

How come?

Yeah, sure. :)

This is not true. And this is even tantamount to offending
all those who've practised no-nonsense studying of all that
Thracian-Dacian stuff.
