Brun,
I am going to be decisive and say to just include me on BOTH the Romantic/Slavic and the
Middle Eastern team. Final decision! I think I will be able to offer an acceptable level
of participation for both teams.

*jäŋe /*ledús and Czechoslovak people:

Please bring me up to date.

1) What language families does *jäŋe /*ledús include?

2) Is there a separate Czechoslovak team that is neither part of *jäŋe /*ledús nor the Slavic/Romance team?

3) Who are the members of each team?

1) We're not sure yet whether there'll be a *jäŋe /*ledús team or a a Uralic/Altaic team or a combination of the two. You can just add all those people to the *jäŋe /*ledús team for now and we'll see how it develops over the next 2 weeks or so and then work it out for sure.

I'm not sure exactly who's in this team yet. Chung, me and Mick33 for sure and I think there were a couple of others but I expect you have them recorded.

2) The Czechoslovak team is completely separate and consists of me, Chung, nuriayasmin70 (not yet 100% confirmed) and now Lapislazuli (welcome by the way!).


I hope this clears it up, you're doing a great job by the way! :)

OK. At this point I have:

*jäŋe /*ledús (Uralic-Altaic?) = Chung, hribecek, Mick33

Czechoslovak = Chung, hribecek, nuriayasmin70, Lapislazuli


I hope that's correct. If not, let me know and I will try again.

That sounds about right.

- Team *jäŋe /*ledús covers Finno-Ugric and Balto-Slavonic as always. Extending it to Altaic isn't currently necessary unless there's an influx of people after me who also intend to study an Altaic language (probably a Turkic or Mongolic one). Extending it to Uralic isn't necessary at the moment either since I'd be damned if someone planning to study a Samoyedic language joins (Uralic is usually divided into Finno-Ugric and Samoyedic with the former encompassing Estonian, Finnish, Saamic languages, Mari and Hungarian (i.e. the more likely choices for study)). So far, hribecek, mick33 and I are soldiering on. Serpent has volunteered to be the Finnish elder, while maxval has been nominated as such for Hungarian (without his knowing). Amerykanka could be a Polish one, but based on how it's functioned this year for the Polish team, we could eventually have a handful of elders for each target language.

- The Czechoslovak team so far consists of those four people, with hribecek offering to be the Czech elder. One for Slovak would be very nice too.

Thank you so much. It probably would have helped had I just known what *jäŋe /*ledús meant in the first place.

Should I set up a new thread for Team *jäŋe / *ledús in 2013 or continue the existing thread with the first post being corrected to show also the roster for 2013? I've also set up a thread for the Czechoslovak team.

*jäŋe / *ledús are the reconstructions of the word meaning "ice" in Proto-Finno-Ugric and Proto-Balto-Slavonic respectively.
