There are few common words between scandinavian languages and south slavic which are not of latin origin,like :
pig:
croatian svinja icelandic svin
croatian/bulgarian stolica/stol swedish/norwegian stol
snow:
bulgarian snyag/croatian snijeg swedish / norwegian snö icelandic snjór
That is not from thracians contact with goths?
These are examples of very used words.
In romanian the word for snow is zapada,which people does not know from where it is coming,they suposed is from zapadati from serbo-croatian which means also to fall snow, but I doubt,anyone here from Serbia/Croatia ever heard of zapadati having also the meaning of snow falling?
