According to my notes I got this from Giuliano and Larissa Bonfante
1983, and from Adolfo Zavarone 1996. The Bonfantes are about as reliable as
they come and Zavarone's book is well documented. I got the form from his
glossary but I haven't finished picking through all the chapters yet
because they're so detailed.
