"Yan, tan, tethera" posted by Henry,April 20 2004. Sounds like Welsh? Any response to possible Nordic origins? See musical "Music Man" and ref. to Native American Counting system in Oiwa-" I will now count in the native tongue- een, teen, pedera, pimp." Actual or faked up by playwright? Any experts in east coast Native American languages? .
