Aha. Thanks to all who responded.
You'd think I should have remembered _leat_ being 'to you'
since it was less than a month since Nik Taylor posted a
summary of the inflected prepositions. :P
And I know _o_ is 'of' in Middle Welsh, and 'of' isn't too
far from 'from', is it? :)
Well, back to watching the Ahtletics World Championship. Us
Swedes are doing mighty fine, aren't we? :)
