Can we make isoglosses?

[Helmut Winkler]

gs is an abbr..gas a solution. And the word order id o.k.

I know the word order of "so nim geiss milch" is okay. But is "so nim gahes mich" also an acceptable word order? It sounds weird to me, but then again, a sentence like "so nim gahes mich" would most likely have appeared in a more poetic context (verses), where word order is sometimes altered to suit meter and rhyme.

I'm also not clear on the abbreviation bit. Do you mean someone wanted to abbreviate the word "gas" and then decided to add in the "a" after all? Wouldn't the solution be "gais" then?

I dont know the meaniing of gahes

gas/gais, I think both are a possibility,  the scribe  wrote gs with a long extension of the g and inserted a single a, I see no other way
