Viridzen, I think it's better if we are un-biased and let Torre do some
work to prove his claim, if Torre can find or make such a list, let him
show it here and we might change our opinion, but I think it's unlikely.

Although I think too that it's unlikely that Yiddish grew out of Gothic
there are a few words in Yiddish possibly of Gothic origin, how they come
there, maybe they were loaned from Gothic to Slavic to Yiddish.
