Yes, that fleeting vowel (p/ja/s but p/s-a), indicative of a<br>
proto-Slavic short /i/ and so also an Indo-European short /i/, is the<br>
vowel that is "wrong". Not that I ever heard of anyone trying to
shear<br>
a dog (though i HAVE heard of "SHEEPdogs"!), but if that short /i/
was<br>
a short /e/ it would be perfect for the *pek^(w)- etymon... And Slavic<br>
does not, to my memory , have any competitors for that slot.<br>

Great! Actually two of the last languages I worked on leisure-like<br>
(that is: after I decided to leave Japan
for this NGO in Bombay
and<br>
before I knew how much work I was getting myself into!) were Upper and<br>
Lower Sorbian (aka Lusatian aka Wendish). Somehow during my<br>
grad-school days as a Slavic Linguistics major I didn't get around to<br>
them.<br>
<br>
I got as close as Berlin, but I ended up
liking Berlin too much and my<br>
summer of travel ran out on me, and so I didn't get those last couple<br>
hours to  "Serbia".<br>
<br>
I'll download them straight away so next time the monsoons have me<br>
trapped inside (thank god I live on the first floor -- 2nd floor to<br>
you yanks!) and the electricity is out, I will have some pleasure<br>
reading!<br>

I'm glad you like it, Mike.<br>
<br>
Yesterday I added a Romanian version:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/romana.php">http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/romana.php</a><br>
<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/romana-info.php">http://lowlands-l.net/anniversary/romana-info.php</a><br>
<br>
I will probably add an audio file to it.<br>
<br>
OK, you "guys," keep on going with the projects! If you don't remember
what they are, take another look at them, for the keep developing:</span></p>
