Sorb... now there's an interesting byway into which to divert this thread. I first came across the word while pleasurably wasting time with my satellite dish, exploring German radio and television stations. The public broadcaster serving Saxony listed occasional news broadcasts in the Sorbish language -- which I'd never heard of. Looking it up, I found that there are two tiny populations of Sorbs in towns close to the border with Poland. They are reckoned to be descended from Slavic tribes which migrated there in the fifth or sixth century. If they are keeping their viol alive, it can probably be heard somewhere here:
