Greetings, fellow dialists, Without wishing to extend the dialist/diallist controversy beyond what it is worth may I just add that a near parallel to this word is offered in the Shorter Oxford as both "medallist" and "medalist". Clearly, as in most English spellings, the rules are not exact. We would be better with Esperanto! Frank 55N 1W
