... You asked whether anyone else had proposed the development; I gave you four examples. If you already knew that they existed, why did you ask? ... <shrug>...
... Thanks. I take it you disagree with Kortlandt's explanation of the /e:/ in Goth. <te:kan> from preglottalization? How well received is K.'s idea that...

... Hardly any other? How come that most linguists interpret the word as *g^noh3-ti- 'known, recognised' (see Lubotsky for I-Ir. and Derksen for Balto-Slavic),...

... Because the rest is unproblematic. 'The known /recognised ones' covers both affinity and sonsanguinity. 'The begotten ones' would cover only the latter....
... To me this debate seems a little wrong-headed. Sons-in-law are part of a family; and languages can be imagined which extend either "knowing" or ...
To my horror, I have found something in English I do not know how to punctuate. An apostrophe is used in plurals after numbers and letters, so we are right to...
... That's certainly not the usage that I was taught, especially for dates: I was taught that correct usage is 'the 1930s', 'the 30s', 'two CDs', etc. Digging...
