Hails, frijundeis,<br>
<br>
with respect to the final -e on numerals (e.g., seuene) in Crimean Gothic, I would submit a distant comparison of that phenomenon <wbr>with current <wbr>dialect <wbr>in many towns in Oberbayern, Germany, including working-class Muenchen: Finfi, sechsi, siebni, achti, etc. <br>
<br>
As to ten being "thiine", my vote goes to the glottal stop; some precedent for this exists in modern Danish, where ten is "ti:", as opposed to Swedish "tio". <br>

Yes that seems to a reasonable explanation. When unstressed would it <br>
be enata then?<br>

OK, but when used with masculine nouns it should be used. Shouldn't a <br>
masculine be just en or ens if -s suffix is kept?<br>

It was a greek guy who told Busbecq all these words and he could have <br>
some greek influence on pronunciation (as one website suggests), for <br>
instance hails should have been hel (or el) [(h)e:l] but he said it <br>
as iel coz he didn't use long vowels in his greek dialect. And his <br>
short e was broken into ie. If that's correct words such as thiine, <br>
breen etc. shouldn't have any long vowel.<br>

><br>
B seems to become voiceless before l (plut) but kept before some <br>
other (bruder, bars etc.) Is it the same with g (e.g. goltz), the <br>
word for cry was written as eriten but shouldn't this be griten, with <br>
g remaining?<br>
<br>
I think it's confusing how Busbecq uses the spelling th and tz. If th <br>
is [t] and tz [T] then I wonder why the definite article the and tho <br>
as initla [t] and the pronoun [T]. Further could it be presumed that <br>
[T] was kept initlally before vowel and final (e.g. goltz, statz).<br>
<br>
I realize that this is now off topic and should probably be discussed <br>
under crimean gothic instead, sorry for that ;)<br>
