But that "lingua getica" wasn't the ancient language
of the Getae, was it?

I don't see any problem. I only can see your
expectation. Your expectation is that Cyril
had knowledge of some kind of genuine dialect of
the language once spoken by the Getae. I myself
am curious to see what kinda language of the
Getae that could've been.
