Piotr, there is no vocalisation. Marius will can explain now to you what
I meant with that word "mãrgelatul" and he will explain you too that the
slavic "eli" is not rom "-ealã" but rom "-ealã" is or cognate or from
latin "ella".
But for you I give an another magic expresion: economy of the language.
I guess is enough for someone of your caliber for understanding it.
