Hansen strikes me as Danish rather than German. See how much
more beautiful the Ayeri is? :-)

BTW my name in Kidilib is Hurjbihl ['hurz\biK] "Mouth-of-
horse"(*), and used in the same form in Classical Sohlob.
While it is also the name of one Sohloçan philologist I'm
unsure if he is actually me. Probably not. There is a
Rashbold in "The Notion Club Papers", clearly an avatar of
Tolkien, though hardly himself, or he'd be some 150 years
old at the time that story is set.

(* That _hurj_ looks similar to _horse_ is actually a
coincidence. Perhaps I should even change the word for
'horse'?)
