The best way is to try and actually do it not fearing making 
mistakes. There are always people around here who will aptly set you 
straight :-) Seriously, we all make mistakes but if we will be too 
shy to suggest anything we'll get no result at all. Just write 
Gothic and have fun.

I think I'm not alone here who would like to thank you Justïn for co-
initiating the recent rise of activity on Gothic-L. It's long since 
we had such a dense on-topic discussion which hopefully will result 
in something tangible like a list of neologism. Maybe the spring 
humor is working here too...
