Finding Ingrian words is a time-consuming task. I look them up on Wiktionary, the Dictionary of Ingrian Dialects, and the Finnish-Karelian Dictionary. Sometimes I browse Vepsian poems to get ideas.
It took me over 2 hours to compile the vocabulary table below. I am gradually adding these words to the Ingrian-English-Finnish table. Now that three-language table contains over 20 A4 pages in pdf format.
Please go and browse the table, which is in PDF format and which you can copy for your own use, as long as you follow the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License and mention Wiktionary and my name, Yelling Rosa, because the Finnish column is mine.
