Old Pol, Potebnia queries

[Loren A. Billings]

Dear colleagues,

Thanks to all who replied to my recent queries:  R. Feldstein, D. Bayer, W.
Mahota, W. Skorbacki, A. Sosnowski, J. Haney, E. Ladna, K. Dziwirek, K.
Goeringer, F. Gladney, A. Cienki, G. Fowler and W. Browne.

godac' = 'speak' (modern dialects have _gadac'_; o/e variation connected
    historically to distinctive length).

s'niedziono od zwierza = '(it ??) was eaten by an animal' (the _s_ is based on
    the historical influence of the final _n_ in the prefix *_s"n_; cf. mdn.
    Polish _s'niadanie_ 'breakfast').

Thanks again,  --Loren Billings (billings at mailer.fsu.edu)
