I read most of the bible in Gothic but I would like to have easier and more modern texts. I understand biblical Gothic more or less but I am very busy with...
Randulfs, I have a Gothic etymological dictionary (Holthausen) which includes some reconstructed names. I haven't quite figured out how the author determined...
Hails! I imagine someone here has taken the trouble to reconstruct the known Gothic names. I would be very interested in this. For example, Theoderic is...
I believe it is instructive to note that the "Basileic Gets" were reported in antiquity and the Voyevode institution remained active in Slavic feuds such as...
In fact, not a matter of scale but of language. For Slavic(and Romanian) peoples around, Voyevode means anakes == judge, ruler, king (just google on...
Hails Gotenfreund! We shall send you to Russia to look for traces of the Goths there; though you may need to add Turkish to your impressive arsenal of...
yes, thank you, I've enjoyed using the Lambdin text, especially the copious practice exercises. My only peeve is that he doesn't differentiate between (ai,...
I don't think the Slavic etymology is as absurd as you make it sound. 1. There is a semantic (and developmental) equivalent in the Germanic languages: German...
Is this simply an objection to the change in scale? English "folk" (human beings in general) and German "Volk" (a people) have cognates ranging from a whole...
Hi, I'm Konrad, born and raised in Belgium. I'm a native speaker of Dutch, learned how to speak French from the age of onwards, am proficient enough in German...
I'm studying from Lambdin independently as well, I've found him to be quite a competent textbook author and hope you have as well. I'm just starting modern...
Hails! I am a new member from the USA. I have spent the last year studying Lambdin's Introduction to the Gothic Language. I also have studied Icelandic,...

In latin the equivalent is Dominus and Voievod(Voyevoda) - in romanian - meaning "I allow you=Voie va dau(a da voie==to allow; va=to you ", fitting the Greek...
Oscar this is interesting, I was not aware that the interpretation was wrong. I'll look at your previous postings. Ingemar, I know how Cernunnos looks, but not...
I like learning languages. I understand some Gothic because I read most of the gothic bible but I did not use a dictionary. I did also read most of the Edda...
Nope, not everybody but I have wondered as well! The story of the goat celebration i Romania is good. We have also some old traditions in Scandinavia with...
havent heard from any members lately like llama nom,etc.....everybody on vacation ... From: dciurchea <dciurchea@...> Subject: [gothic-l] Cernunnos the...
The name Cernunnos is generally interpeted as "the horned one". This is not correct as it is not only obvious(the sculpture in Paris is horned indeed) but...
Arguments: 1. It is exceptional that a king leaves his throne to his brother(or whoever) and this matches the Eddas. It is the only case I know. Great priest...
This sounds interesting, but Cassius Dio doesn't seem to say much about Duras/Douras, except that he conceded the throne to Decebalus. Can you explain your...

Hailags! Â As usual, our own Ingemar Nordgren has announced a magnificent discovery with modesty and accuracy. Â Ingemar's article ( which I had the honour...
Hails, I would just suggest that you read the soon coming new issue of Pyrenae - Archaeological Journal for Western Mediterranean - where I have an article...
