In the first edition of the dictionary "silvir" is tagged explicitely
as "Krim. Tatar.", cf.
In the very edition "ses" is tagged just with "Krim.", cf.
but because of the first occurence the meaning of "Crimean Tatars"
seems more probable than that of "Crimean Gothic".
On the other hand, as we have now only one word and only two candidate
languages to consider, a suitable dictionary may definitely solve the
problem. Unfortunately I was unable to locate any with Google.
Best regards
