Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
It seems like there are no objections, so here's the new word:
hian di cot
[çan dɪ kot]
(technically this is three words, but it's a set phrase, like qwed's)
hian di cot
[çan dɪ kot]
(technically this is three words, but it's a set phrase, like qwed's)

Is di equivalent to Spanish de and its cognates?

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
Is hian "dog"? I realize that's probably a bit of a stretch, but my first impression was that it reminded me of French chien, so I thought I might as well ask, just in case.

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
Did the third word begin with /k/ in Classical Latin?

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
Was cot originally two syllables in Classical Latin?

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
Maybe a bit of a long shot, but is cot from caput?

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs
Does the <o> in cot descend from Classical Latin <o> or <ō>?

Classical Latin <au>?
