It's me that I told you this. Now you come back and tell me what I
told you?


In addition:
You said 'jos palaria' to Alex, when he suspected an accented e

For the sake of the argumentation:
I show you that in Hungarian loans in Romanian even an accented e
remain unchanged, not to talk about an unccented one....

Hope this clarify.

1. I don't live currently in Ardeal. I'm in Bucharest from 20 years
My parents are there. So I can have 'at least' an impression
about Romanian subdialects.

2. Next, there is no /'maeS-ter/ pronunciation in Transylvannia ...

3. Finally, To suspect that Rosetti was 'not well informed' about
Romanian dialectology ===> is for me (at least, that I read and re-
read him several times) a blasphemy.

Somebody can disagree with Rosetti of course, but not at such a
basic level...because will be his issue in this case.
