In the past Edith Marold has not always seen eye to eye with me on the question of the existence of a Gothic element amongst the inscriptions encompassed by the older runic corpus of Scandinavia (see, e. g., Marold 2010; cf. also Nielsen 2011). Although the present contribution is indeed concerned with Gothic, I have no desire - and definitely not in a volume published in honour of Edith on her 75th birthday - to perpetuate this ancient controversy, which inscriptionally and linguistically has always had the provenance of the early Scandinavian runes at its centre of interest. As suggested by the title of this paper, I shall instead move in a different direction - and in one that through a comparison between the Biblical and Crimean Gothic sound systems will highlight the dialectal position of Crimean Gothic within Germanic.
