I've come across references to

<seal> (the animal) < OE seolh < Germanic *selhaz < ? Finnic
	(and I think maybe also <selkie>, the Scottish sea critter)
and
<oar> < *airo < ? Finnic

Maybe Ante can give us a Uralic opinion on these

>Please where can I find a complete list of these words which are found in
