Short description

ETYMO is a program that simulates diachronic sound change by interpreting sets of linguistical »rules« (or »formulas«) that describe the regular phonetical evolution of a specific language. 

ETYMO is FREE software. Please note that the terms of the GNU General Public License apply to this program.
