[gothic-l] Re: The numbers + Please & Thank you

[llama_nom]

Hi Jim,

Please: "jabai wileis" (if speaking to one person, literally "if you 
will").  If speaking to two people that becomes: jabai wileits.  If 
more than two: jabai wileith.

Thank you:
singular: awiliudo thus
dual: awiliudo igqis
plural: awiliudo izwis

For more on the Gothic calendar, check out the thread titled: "háils" 
(with posts by Manie, Francisc & myself).  I put a lot of extraneous 
details and highly speculative stuff in my last post, but all that is 
really known about the Gothic calendar comes from a fragment 
containing a list of (Christian) feast days for part of October and 
November.  The only month names that are recorded are two 
alternatives for November: Naubaimbair (based on Latin), and Fruma 
Jiuleis (the native Gothic name).
