*****GK: What is "Pre-Romanian" in your view? A
language that existed prior to the Latin
arrival/implantation in the Balkans, i.e. prior to 165
BC? It's ridiculous to speak of this as
"pre-Romanian". Totally anachronistic. There was no
"pre-Romanian" before the Latins came. Romanian is an
eastern Romance language. Elementary.******

No ridiculous is the fact that you skip wittingly the argument
that I show you:
Romanian ratsa and mazare (OLDER ra:tsja and ma:dzula) shows in
Romanian (in Relation with PALb a:>o transformation) an OLDER
Phonetic treatement that ALL the Latin words in Romanian and
Albanian....This is a FACT. So please take it as a fact.
Based on this belong to an elementary logic that The Pre-Romanian
Substratum existed BEFORE the latin layer....So Pre-Romanians are the
people that were fully Romanized and became Romanians.
Why is hard to understand this?

Only The Best,
Marius
