Composite of 15085 & 15098:

Moeller:
The question here is only one: A person , person "X" see some rules
which applied to PIE radicals give the actual Romanian words from
substrate. OK, it is maybe a question of luck. But these rules,
unchanged gives too the same words from the normal worsd who are
considered to be latin AND the dacian and thracian words . How
that? What does it means?

Richard:
If this is true - I have not checked your claim - it simply means
that in many cases the Latin word is still very close to the IE form,
like <equa> /ekwa:/ 'mare'...

Richard:
or dens, dentis 'tooth'.

[Moeller] you are invited to check. It is my pleasure to do
it.

Richard:
Is there an easy way to get at the collection? Or do I need
to
search the many postings for 'thraco-dac'?

[Moeller] you can get a query on net about thracian language.
You will find Georgiev-s book for sure. Take please the
glosese there ( are just 23) and do not pay attention to the
"reconstructions"
Fitrst take a look at them and after you made up a imagine of
these, go to reconstructed thracian forms of Georgiev. If you
still dont have enough of the "sastemism" of these things, ask
me. I willbe pleased to give you any information I have.

End of composite.

Richard:
I've found Duridanov's description, at
http://members.tripod.com/~Groznijat/thrac/index.html , including the
23 Thracian words, and a toponymic description by Georgiev, at
http://members.tripod.com/~Groznijat/vg/vg.html . However, I am none
the wiser as to the identity of the words illustrating 'But these
rules,
unchanged gives too the same words from the normal worsd who are
considered to be latin AND the dacian and thracian words'. What are
these words?
