Abstract:

Gothic is the earliest attested Germanic language. Although now
extinct and without any direct modern descendants, it has left a
significant imprint—particularly on the Romance languages. As such,
Gothic offers invaluable source material for Indo-Europeanists,
researchers of language contact, typologists, and general linguists
alike.
"The Etymological Gothic Dictionary Online" is a unique and
comprehensive resource featuring advanced search functionalities —an
essential addition to any academic library.
Based on the third edition of "Vergleichendes Wörterbuch der Gotischen
Sprache" by Sigmund Feist. With Bibliography prepared under the
direction of H.-J.J. Hewitt.
Winfred Philip Lehmann (June 23, 1916 – August 1, 2007) was an
American linguist who specialized in historical, Germanic, and
Indo-European linguistics. He was for many years a professor and head
of department for linguistics at the University of Texas at Austin and
served as president of both the Linguistic Society of America and the
Modern Language Association. His major publications include
"Proto-Indo-European Phonology" (1952), "Historical Linguistics: An
Introduction" (1962, 2nd edition 1973, 3rd edition, 1992),
"Proto-Indo-European Syntax" (1974), "Language: An Introduction"
(1982), "Theoretical Bases of Indo-European Linguistics" (1993),
"Pre-Indo-European," (2002). His "A Gothic Etymological Dictionary"
was published by Brill in 1986.
