Re: [romanceconlang] Re: A translation exercise!



Isaac Penzev scripsit:

> Fr. marquis > It. marchese
> Oc. trobador > It. trovatore
> It. cartoccio > Fr. cartouche
> It. sentinella > Es. centinela
> Fr. jardin > Es. jardín
> Es. ayudante > Fr. adjudant

And my very favorite case, OldOc. "espanhol" > Sp. "espan~ol", completely
displacing native "espan~on".
