Re: [romconlang] Re: Those words not in the dictionary...



Christianus Thalmannus scripsit:

No, it is Georges, which is altogether a heftier thing
(two >1000 pages volumes) and not directed atschool use,
but the German is in Fraktur, and I have one of those
blue Langenscheidts too -- and a Greek one.  All of these
bought used in Berlin, BTW.  I also have a Swedish-Latin
dictionary with the *Swedish* in Fraktur, which is all the
more remarkable, since it was printed long after Fraktur
went out of non-religious use here.

BTW, is Thalmannus the correct Latinization or do you
prefer Coelander? ;)
