LAMBAZ

Am not sure where you sourced this supposed etymology of Prot-Finnish LAMBAS being derived from the P.G. LAMBAZ; but it is erroneous, due to the lack of taking into account that the Germanic peoples that brought over their Mezzo-Indo-European dialects settled peacefully in Germany and its area in contradistinction to the aggresive conquests in Britain. Many substrates of Celtic and older dialects were thus assimulated into their language that became Proto-Germanic; whereas in my country, England the various substrates were borrowed into Anglo-Saxon for the above reason. Anyway Proto-Finnic would be older than Proto-Germanic, and would not have to borrow basic farm animal names from a newer language stock. For further details, please read the section on 'etymologies that discredit Wiktionary' in the early talk edits of Surjection. There it is also explained why the grotesquely fabircated P.I.E. reconstruction is error. Kind Regards. Andrew H. Gray 11:29, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
