In the current version I have extracted only data that is relevant for my own research, especially cols WOT, H and years. There is, however, much more interesting information in the pdf that could be included, like

  • including Cumanian words from raw in CLDF as well
  • adding the 39 Alanic borrowings on p. 1331-1339.
  • Mongolic and sometimes Chinese etymologies for West Old Turkic words,
  • the exact year and form of Hungarian words that appear in the written sources (phonetic transciptions of the various old-Hungarian orthographies are already provided in the pdf!),
  • related words in the Turkic and other language families
  • List of sources where it has been dealt with the given etymology

This could be a future project idea, maybe a good idea to get in touch with the authors of the original work and check if a database still exists somewhere and is available? Currently too much work for one person to parse + manually clean the pdf.

Contacted the author, A. Róna-Tas. No underlying tables are available for the pdf. I.e. the pdf is the only source and has to be wrangled.
