Thank you Piotr. Seeing that I don't wonder that Walde-Hoffmann does
not try to make any relationship between Italic "ollus" and Slavic
*olno; I don't guess there is any relationship either and if one try
to connect Slavic *olno with *ollo(>ollus) the basis for a such
connection should be just for the phonetical reasons and no
semantical reasons; but even (for the pressumed assimillation ln >
ll) this is a very weak one. If I recall correct, Szemerenyi is very
reserved for speaking about some dissimilations/assimilations when
there is just a two languages relationship and a thirth language at
least cannot be called for show if there is a such
assimilation/dissimilation.
Thank you for your info.
