Fourth Skok etymological conference will be held on November 6--7, 1998, in
the city of Krk. 

The last Dalmatophone, Tone Udaina Burbur, died in 1898. He spoke Vegliote,
a dialect of the Dalmatian language. Vegliote was spoken in the island of
Krk (city of Krk = Vegliote _Vekla_, from Lat. _civitas vetula_; Vegliote
_Vekla_ gave Italian _Veglia_), in Croatia. 

As you can read in Matteo Giulio Bartoli's _Das Dalmatische_ II (Wien 1906;
modified writing) -- 

naNka join dei sinyáuri noN sapája favlúr iN veklisún. 
"Neanche uno dei signori non sapeva parlar in vegliesano." (7/8) -- said
Tone Udaina Burbur. 

In connection with the 100th aniversary of the death of Tone Udaina Burbur
and the Dalmatian and Vegliote language, _Fourth Skok etymological
conference_ will be held on November 6--7, 1998, in the city of Krk. 

Linguists working with Adriatic, Croatian, Mediterranean and general themes
of the etymological theory and praxis, are invited to submit their
