Re: [romconlang] re: Vegliot Vocalism

No comments at the time, just one question: are Dalmatian and Vegliot
actually synonyms of each other, or is Vegliot part of something
bigger that we call Dalmatian? Just wondering.

Unfortunately, Vegliot/Dalmatian is mostly neglected in most works I
own about Romance linguistics. P. Boyd-Bowman's extremely interesting
and useful "From Latin to Romance in Sound Charts" does not mention
it at all (nor does it mention Romanian, for that matter). And D.
Lincoln Canfield & J. Cary Davis' "An Introduction to Romance
Linguistics" only mentions it briefly.

I may come back to you later with some Low Saxon place names I've
been working on lately. Perhaps you'd like to review the orthography.
