Re: [tied] On "Steppe"

Sounds like what Glen is proposing is a reworking of Greenberg's (and Bomhard's) Eurasiatic.

By the way, I am indeed back after a long time away, and am looking for someone with a list of IE roots from Gamqrelidze-Ivanov, or how G-I is different from Pokorny (besides the glottalic theory and laryngeals). And I'm also hunting an Old Georgian wordlist.

And why is there not a decent, complete Armenian dictionary online? I've found Georgian and some North Caucasian languages....

Subject: [tied] On "Steppe"

Running from West to East this chain goes as follows Tyrrhenian<-->PIE<-->Uralo-Yuk.<-->Chu-Kam<-->Esk-Al ^ | V Altaic Although glen calls this chain "Steppe", apart from the fact that Altaic, and possibly PIE, none of the languages were in historical times found anywhere near the Steppes.
