They have been there (the goths and gepidae) some longer as the Romans.
The Germanic "heulen" ( see Rom. "hãuli"), the germanic word for "owl"
which is "uhu" ( se room. "buhã") see Gothic "azyma" ( unsalated bread)
and Rom. "azima", see Germanic "mehl" rom. "mãlai", see german "fotze",
Rom. "puTã", usw. usw.
