The message reads :
the formal and semantic match betweem PIE *h2jw- and Semitic *h.yw- is
striking indeed and may point to ancient borrowing (or to Nostratic
inheritance, _if_ there are possible matches in other families).

Dansk-Tysk Erbschaft
Dansk-Engelsk inheritance
Dansk-Fransk héritage
Dansk-Italiensk eredità
Dansk-Svensk arv

The translation of this mail as supporting the hypothesis of a LW is a
