With this interpretation, Middle Welsh<em> dihynnion</em> can be connected to the otherwise etymologically isolated Breton <em>dienn </em>and Cornish <em>dehen </em>‘cream’. All three words are derived from a Proto-Brittonic compound verb *<em>di-hɪnn- </em>‘to skim, to scoop off’ which in turn ultimately stems from the Proto-Celtic verbal root *<em>sem- </em>‘to pour, to scoop’.</span></span></p> Anders Jorgensen Copyright (c) 2024 Studia Celtica Fennica https://journal.fi/scf/article/view/145653 Mon, 04 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0200 Cisalpine Celtic varia III https://journal.fi/scf/article/view/143801 <p>The article collects notes on the readings, analyses and etymologies of three Cisalpine Celtic inscriptions (MI·24 <strong>kituaretos</strong>, VA·20 <strong>snaśiouitos</strong>, TI·43 ]<strong>ọni : kuimpaḷui</strong><sup>? </sup><strong>: pạḷạ</strong>), argues for the interpretation of TI·29 ]<strong>ạniui : p</strong>[ and TI·31 ]<strong>aḷạ</strong>[ as parts of the same inscription, and discusses graffiti and inscriptions on Golasecca beakers.</p> Corinna Salomon Copyright (c) 2024 Studia Celtica Fennica https://journal.fi/scf/article/view/143801 Mon, 04 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0200
