In German, the cognate to "up" is "auf". Long vowel (diphthong actually). Also in German they have "in" but also "ein" with long vowel (diphthong). Also in...
David said: "Or the consonant could be [x] instead of g or k. So *ech [Ex]. Then no problem, the vowel would be short because of the double consonant." I...
I have a little question about copyright. I am building a web page about germanic languages and would like to have a little bit about the Folkspraak Projekt....
There was a Wikipedia page but it's been deleted. There may be copies of it cached somewhere. It was deleted from Wikipedia, but there may still be a copy on...
Yes, up [u:p], an [a:n], in [i:n] with long vowels have counterparts in several source languages, and so we can avoid "upp", "ann", "inn". My proposal is to...
... You are right it looks very Scandinavian. Well, it was a pure mistake. I know it is "ing", but perhaps our "ning" just came out while I wasn't thinking....
Dear Bjorn, I tried to save the article (in the German wikipedia), but the destructive forces have been victorios. :( I made the germ of another arcticle...

... That would be a good simplification. ... Would you apply this to the spelling of prefixes and suffixes, too? Would you prefer "spreker" or "sprekerr"? "du...

... This is the last message out of many I'm replying now (sorry for the wrong order â€" I loaded them from the internet and just started replying). I...
... I wouldn't consider the vowels in those prefixes and suffixes to be short but to be unstressed schwas. That's an entirely different can of worms IMHO. So...
... So what do you do for pronouns, articles etc that really do have a long vowel? Eg, I think [u:t] (out) pretty much must have one. But it's a "small"...

I hope too, Dave. A broken PC is really frustrating. Btw: I see that you're using "ech" now, but in UFS (united folkspraak) it's "ik", as you'll see when your...
