    • 2025, Cid Swanenvleugel, The Pre-Roman Elements of the Sardinian Lexicon, page 360:
      Wagner argues that most of the Sardinian forms presented above are interdialectal loans from lóssi̯a (8: Milis). Vendors from Milis and its surroundings, where reeds and rushes are common, would have travelled the island to sell their woven mats, thus dispersing their word for it.
