[gothic-l] A new word

[Fredrik]

Hi all!

I don't do much so i think about words in gothic which i cannot find 
in any dicctionary. Now it's the gothic word for duck. I have 
searched for it in all dicctionaries I know about on internet but 
without finding any so i took the freedom to recreate it instead.
I wonder if you think this is ok or if not.

The word in swedish is 'and' (or in another form 'anka') and the 
german is 'ente'. Acording to some books and dicctionaries (like 
runeberg.org) this comes from *anuðiz.
I guess this would have been 'anuds' in gothic, and an i-stem.
The icelandic önd and the german ente is both feminine so  therefore 
I guess the gothic word also is feminine.

Comments please!
