2) Schumann argues that gemination does not occur in Vadi, as the authors' ''Širkattarnaft'' does not show any gemination.  This argument, as Tashunka notes, is problematic in that most Minhast writings, both past and present, rarely use the gemination diacritic.  There is no reason to think the Vadi litigants would not follow the same practice.
