Eaton: You asked for it ...
More Eaton, you ask??? Here's 4 pages worth. Make sure that if
something looks like a gismu (i.e. the first word) that the
other-language values match our assumed meaning for the gismu. In the
case of that first word, there are two Spanish equivalents. If they are
not completely synonymous, perhaps there are two concepts needing
separate lujvo.

==========
Next time we get our first culture words that rate inclusion independent
of the "my culture/your culture" concept - Moslem (from French) and
Peruvian (from Spanish, of course). Jorge: any idea why peruano was
frequent but the words for Colombian, and Chilean are not (Argentine and
Mexican are in back on p185 and p187 respectively, so we'll get to them,
but I don't see many others in this Euro-biased data set. Hmm Belgian
(p204), Celtic (p201), Pharasee (p200 - well maybe not a true
culture-word, it rates as much for the attitude as the cultural
identity), gypsy (p196), Swedish (p188), Japanese (p187), danish (p186),
Teutonic/Germanic (p186), Portuguese (p185), Gothic (p185), Christendom
(p179), as opposed to Christainity (p177), Cuba (p177), Persian (p166),
Orient (p151), Easter (p148), Protestant (p139), Africa (p138), , Arabia
(p136), Christmas (p133), Austrai (p130), Dutch (p129), Jew (p115)
Which brings us down to the set of cultures in the gismu list because JCB
had them (because they were listed in the first 3000 concepts in Eaton)
such as Scottish, Amerind, etc.
