[gothic-l] New objects/methods/techniques for which the Goths made a Gothical neologism

[Werner van Nuffel]

For new object/concepts/techniques/utils/animals.flowers... the Goths 
could also used an analogical way to think
about a possible "new word construction" in their native Gothic 
language... 
For exemple : to describe new flowers the Goths maybe used (parts of)
already know-objects/... (or their forms, textures, colors,...).
Through "analogue thinking" they made maybe their own Gothic words, 
based on forms in (gem)stones, mountains, trees, animals
 they 
already knew and so their own Gothic name-for-it was formed.
In the botanical world their are many 'native names' for the same 
flower. The Latin name is than used as a universal key.
An indepth-analysis of the fauna, flora, geology that was know by the 
Gots is - in my opinion - very important to understand their way of 
thinking about their own language. 
When we can 'destillate' a sort of 'implicite neologist-making live-
style' we can 'reconstruct' somewhere their language or is this a 
stupid idea?
