Author under contract to write popular nonfiction book regarding oak wood, trees, and forests seeks interviews with linguists having expertise in Indo-European languages. Briefly put, I am seeking to understand the evolution of the words 'oak', 'tree', 'truth', 'door' and their cognates with as much cultural context as possible.

Any help will be very much appreciated and duly acknowledged.
