Perhaps you have forgotten what Brian informed you.
There is no attested <szb> in Egyptian!
===========
It's in Vycichl.
I can't ride the metro for two hours
just to give the page where it's written.
So far
I have never pointed at data
which had no reference.
Arnaud
==============
How can you persist when you have been instructed by your betters?
=============
Better what !?
I promised to avoid insulting blurts.
So let's keep calm.
Arnaud
=========
The Coptic form you drag out cannot be reasonably derived from your mythical
<*ssb>.
=======
Please wait.
You'll have your page in Vycichl.
I believe too much in data
to invent data.
Arnaud

And IE *sone? What unreliable source did you purloin for that tidbit?
Patrick
================
*sone is the ""reconstruction""
in UEW for "string"
I never wrote it's IE.
Cf.Message 55352
As usual, you're over-reacting
when it's obvious the problem is
you failed to understand what's written.
