[Moeller] is now english too an "old candidate" too IE-languages for
puting some english suffixes in discution? If so, we have to
reconsiderate all the so-called "neo-latin" languages as possible
candiates and I can give you a lot of sufixes from these languages which
are ending in -an, -n, ana.
By the way, trough the generally accepted fact that there are just
neolatin languages it seems the scientists loos a very big field of work
where they can find maybe a lot of surprises... I would not wonder if in
a time we will learn that there are no neolatin language and all these
so-called romanic languages are in fact the old dialects of galic celts,
celto-iberians and thracians with the latin "cosmetic". But who has to
study them ?
