Dear Tentakulus,
You, we and all linguists know that languages living in neighboring geographies have exchanged words from each other for thousands of years. Even though they are members of different language groups, word exchange has been experienced in all directions throughout history. For this reason, I am sure that you will not be surprised to see a Turkish word in these languages, just as I am not surprised when I see a Greek or Italian word in the Turkish language.
At this point, I think that there are linguistic details that we can learn from all researchers from different languages on this platform, for many words that are used together with Turkish words in Turkish sentence structure in VM texts. Therefore, if anyone here tries to read words in European languages with ATA transcription, may be we can probably match more sentences clearly. Because the author was probably a multilingual person, we think that why she/he was able to travel in Europe freely.
Thanks
