Proto-Romanian
Should we make a new reconstructed language called Proto-Romanian (roa-ro-pro) and use Romanian orthography for the reconstructions? Kwékwlos (talk) 19:08, 5 April 2023 (UTC)


 * For example:
 * *ad hīcce > *aice
 * *cavula > *gavră
 * *clubium > *kul'bu
 * *eccum illōc > *aculo or *acolo
 * *fētiolum > *fecioru
 * *imbibitō > *ămbetu
 * *inaltum > *ănlatu
 * *incaldēscō > *ăncăld̦escu
 * *indēnsō > *ăndesu
 * *ingrevicō > *ăngrecu
 * *iugastrum > *jugastru
 * *mana > *mănă
 * *norum > noru Kwékwlos (talk) 19:14, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I see no benefit to it and it loses etymological information.
 * Moreover, is there any source which uses such a spelling for proto-Romanian/proto-Balkan-Romance? Nicodene (talk) 19:26, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Romanian page lists some Common Romanian terms. Probably reference 25 or 26. Kwékwlos (talk) 19:36, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Never underestimate the power of Wikipedians to simply make things up.
 * Anyway it's fine as-is. Romance etymological dictionaries use etymological spellings. Nicodene (talk) 19:49, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
