1) What's IB? Ill Bethisad? 2) How's the Latin word accented? On the antepenult? 3) Did the sound change rules change sometime recently? It's been a while since I read through them, but I'd think it'd be something like *Caradag or *Caraethag for the person, and *Caradeg' or *Caraetheg' < *Cara(c)tacia for the place. No? -- Eric Christopherson / *Aiworegs Ghristobhorosyo
