I cannot since in Albanian / Romanian and Bulgarian /Romanian the senses
& sound are mostly the same. In the Latin ecuastion there is
toooooooooooooooo much which does not fits with the etymological
statments. To quote from a recent message of Piotr:
"For an etymological proposal to make sense, it has to be sound both
formally and semantically; additionally, a plausible historical scenario
must be offered to explain the trajectory of a word in time and space."
If this does not happe, to quote from Peter:
"they may be coincidence (this is surprisingly common)"
:-)
