Document Details : Title: Some Nostratic Etymologies Subtitle: Supplement I Author(s): BOMHARD, Alan S. Journal: Orbis Volume: 38 Date: 1995 Pages: 3-59 DOI: 10.2143/ORB.38.0.563360 Abstract : In my recently-published joint monograph with John C. KERNS entitled The Nostratic Macrofamily: A Study in Distant Linguistic Relationship (BOMHARD- KERNS 1994), I listed and discussed 601 possible Nostratic etymologies. Since writing this book, my research has continued, and, as a result, I have changed my mind about a small number of the etymologies listed in the book, and I have accumulated material for new etymologies. In this paper, I would like to present a number of additional Nostratic etymologies. First, however, I will begin by giving a brief introduction to the basic assumptions made in my book. |
