Merge proposal

[edit]

I believe this article should be merged with Germanic substrate hypothesis, since they cover the same topic. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * 18:56, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Since no objections have been raised for almost a year, I'll do the moving. Improvements can be applied in context. Eklir (talk) 18:33, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No relation with any other non Germanic group?

[edit]

I think the examples given in the introduction are not very accurate. Keel is quilla in Spanish (pronounced keellya), mast is mástil, ..... Unless they have a Germanic origin in Spanish (it may be, there are a few Spanish words of Germanic origin, via the Visigoths or even old Germanic French loans), the hypothesis of no relation with non Germanic languages doesn´t hold true for these examples.--Xareu bs (talk) 17:22, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
