[gothic-l] the word "the" as in "the house" or "the car"

[Peter Gutierrez]

Hi fellow lovers of the written language,

Does anybody know what the visigoths might have used
for the word "the."   Spain uses an arabic word for
"the" which is the word "EL."  What the [edit] did the
visigoths used prior to the moorish invasions?  I
imagine that they used something from their old gothic
language. Perhaps something akin to ostrogothic or
even something before they split up to become the east
and west goths.

Peter
