Hmm... Well I fear that there will be a lot of opposition, as this is a frequently edited article, but it had to be said sometime: Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This is just a list of words and their translations into English. In fact, I think it's even a bad title, as it's really like, as RickK suggested, a "List of possible Dacian cognates to words in the Romanian language" or something like that. In any case, the editors work need not be lost, they shouldjust spend their time '''transwiki'''ing the article to wiktionary, so that it can be '''deleted'''. --[[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]] 07:10, 21 May 2005 (UTC) |

'''Keep'''. Shorten the list, expand the text. It cannot be incorporated in the [[Dacian language]] article, because we can't just say 100% that all the words are Dacian. This article deals with words of substratum and probable substratum words in the [[Romanian language]], so it is an article on its own. The only problem is the long list, which can be shortened.
