Where can i check things like dna profile?

Heidstra is Frisian, not west Frisian.

@@henkoosterink8744 ''West Frisian'' is often used in English to refer to the Frisian spoken in the Netherlands to the west of the Lauwers. As opposed to East Frisian and North Frisian now restricted to Germany. But it is a confusing term as there is a region called West Friesland in the province of Noord-Holland...

As a Hiemstra I'm clearly of Frisian descent, but my DNA profile had Scandinavian, about 9%. So I had checked out these connections some time ago. Fun to think that I had Viking ancestors!

​​@@MaicoWeiteswell, the dialect of the northern side of Noord Holland has a lot Frisian Verbal words in it, sometimes i can't understand them either...but then again i'm a Batavian(batavi)😂

Frisian is very, very close to danish.

TeeCan Ja daarin hebt ge gelijk. Friesland grenst aan Denemarken. En de intonatie van beide talen lijkt zeer op malkander. Het friese eiland Sylt is deens. Het deense woord sild betekent haring. De Eider is de historische zuidgrens van Denemarken en grenst onmiddellijk aan Ditmarsen, een fries gebied.

I Love this story and I agree with what you say about Frisian and English (which kinda have the same root) language (I live in Mitselwier close to Holwert)

You should visit Northumberland. The Geordie dialect is closest to Frisian.

There’s a plain reason for this. Almost 2000 years ago the Frisians and Saxones went across to Northhumbria (UK) where the roots are for the English language. The Dutch language came from Frisians in combination with Frankian influence, therefore being quite differently and Frisian cannot be understood by the Dutch nowadays.

False. They had to pay the romans with grain and other shit. But the Frisians didn't want to do that no more and hanged the 12 romans who got there to get the tax. And when the roman army came the Frisians defeated them in the forrest of (something I dont know the name anymore.) and no one knows why but Augustus (If I am correct) never sended more troops to get Frisia back

@I don’t exist For tax and insurance purposes idc, leave me in the swamp while Germanics burn down rome lol

@@KoenBoyful It was the Baduhenna Forrest you rever to.

Ha! Germanic tribes righteously trampled those snobbish Romans.

Zelf Fries, Heb niet heel veel moeite om Deens, Zweeds en Noors te begrijpen, hangt wel van de regio af en daarmee het dialect. + dat Denen over het algemeen hun woorden inslikken, Zweden echt zingen, Noors is in mijn oren het beste te verstaan. Alle 3 de talen zijn aardig goed te lezen als Fries zijnde.

Where can i find more information about all of this?

Not really actually. Frisian is the language that is most like English, which has been very latinized. I don't know why, and how, but it's a fact. Dutch and German is more Germanic sounding than Frisian, and have also more in common with Scandinavian languages than Frisian. It remains a fact though, that Magna Frisia was a Viking territory.

@@tiwaz4598 I think you mix some things up here, Frisian has never been latinized only English has. Frisian is considered closest to English because both languages are branches from the Anglo-Frisian language. Frisian became the continuation of this Germanic language branch and English became the form that mixed Anglo-Frisian with Latin. And the reason Frisian is different from Dutch and German according to linguistics is because the Frisian language didn't have a so called "middle stage" in the evolution of the language, which means that the Frisian language is closer to the original Germanic language than modern Dutch and German are.

@@sanderlucioperca Intelligibility isn't all that matters.

@@Weda01 Not only was English latinized, it gained a lot of influence from local celtic languages, and also Anglo and Saxon languages. Which were closely related yet different.

No more than Englisch.That is all so logic Kelten are longer in Europa.

What does 'look more viking' mean? Scandinavian people are blonde and tall Dutch people are blonde and tall Basically just Germanic phenotype (although Dutch had major Celtic influence, most prominently in Belgium and the southern half of the Netherlands (Brabant & Zealand)

The Frisian are supposed to be the tallest people in the world.

@@NH-ge4vz That is true, africa starts south of the noordoostpolder 🤣

mark scf ja dat is waar maar daar onder zit meer diverse DNA dan friesland.

Het friese volk is naar friesland teruggedreven en een groot deel van de nieuwe bewoners van nederland hebben dus niet friese roots

De meeste mensen buiten Friesland en Groningen hebben geen Friese afkomst maar meer Frankische en Saksische afkomst.

Als een gedeelte nederland een naam heeft gekregen voor een paar jaar betekend het niet dat de personen die in dat gebied wonen ook in dit geval Fries zijn. Bijv. Toen Duitsland Nederland innam in 1940 is het niet zo dat wij nu Duitse roets hebben. Ik snap wat je bedoelt maar je had gewoon volkeren die oud Nederlands praten en niet oud Fries.

@@KoenBoyful Onwaar, tussen 700 en 1300 was het Oudfries de meest gesproken taal in de Nederlanden. De hoofdstad van Friesland was aan het begin van die periode ook Dorestad in het tegenwoordige Utrecht. De voorloper van het Nederlands (Nederfrankisch) werd voor het merendeel van deze periode enkel in Brabant, Limburg, Wallonië en enkele delen van Vlaanderen en zuid-west Duitsland gesproken. Nog enkele eeuwen nadat het Friese koningsrijk was teruggedrongen sprak de lokale bevolking in Groningen, Noord-Holland en een beetje Zuid-Holland nog Oudfries. Desondanks dat feit is aangetoond dat deze mensen alleen cultureel Fries waren, en in de meeste gebieden van Nederland waren vrijwel geen genetische Friezen te bekennen.

Gefeliciteerd.

Correction: The old Frisian empire was bigger than the current country of the Netherlands - and that is excluding the Northern part in Daneland.

Magna Frisia from Belgium to Denmark along the north Sea. "In English: Fon alra fresena fridome 1 From the freedom of all Frisians 1. Thit was to there tha thi kening kerl riuchta bi gunde.

Sir Galahad old Frisian and Norse are the languages of the texts the man reads.

From the edge of the north sea, all the way to Denmark was Frissia. So it remains a possibility. Only the Angles were situated between them and the rest of northern Europe.

I heard a similar story and am still trying to piece it together. What i understand is that there have been two Frisias. The first Frisia was flooded out ( an early bout of 'Climate Change') and it's inhabitants largely dispersed. The second (present) Frisia occurred when the water subsided and the remaining survivors intermingled with Saxons and Jutes (or perhaps Angles..?) with the Frisian language governing/adopted. JMHO. A Frisian living in Canada...

@@Gloopular I did my DNA via ancestryDNA. I have English/Brit, Norwegian & Swedish DNA; small %s. I am wondering if my Brit DNA is actually from my Frisian. I have a lot more % of Northern Euro (German & whatever). 3 grandparents from N. Germany & my Pake from Friesland. 12 BC, the Romans discovered Magna Frisia. Prior to 400 AD when floods came many Frisians migrated to Kent, England & Flanders. BUT these Kent, England Frisians moved back to Friesland during the Anglo-Saxon Wars in England. Frisii are the original Frisian people. "The Frisii (Old Frisian and Old English: Frīs) were an ancient Germanic tribe living in the low-lying region between the Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt delta and the River Ems, and the presumed or possible ancestors of the modern-day ethnic Frisians. The Frisii were among the migrating Germanic tribes that settled along the North Sea in the 4th century BC. They came to control the area from roughly present-day Bremen to Bruges, and conquered many of the smaller offshore islands. In the 1st century BC, the Frisii halted a Roman advance and thus managed to maintain their independence. In the Germanic pre-Migration Period (i.e., before c. 300 AD) the Frisii and the related Chauci, Saxons, and Angles inhabited the Continental European coast from the Zuyder Zee to south Jutland. All of these peoples shared a common material culture, and so cannot be defined archaeologically. On the east they were originally bordered by the Ampsivarii who lived at the mouth of the Ems until AD 58, at which time the Chauci expelled them and gained a border with the Frisii. The Chauci to the east were eventually assimilated by their presumed descendants the Saxons in the 3rd century. Some or all of the Frisii may have joined into the Frankish and Saxon peoples in late Roman times, but they would retain a separate identity in Roman eyes until at least 296, when they were forcibly resettled as laeti (i.e., Roman-era serfs) and thereafter disappear from recorded history. Their tentative existence in the 4th century is confirmed by archaeological discovery of a type of earthenware unique to 4th-century Frisia, called terp Tritzum, showing that an unknown number of Frisii were resettled in Flanders and Kent, likely as laeti under the aforementioned Roman coercion. The lands of the Frisii were largely abandoned by c. 400 due to Migration wars, climatic deterioration and flooding caused by sea level rise. They lay empty for one or two centuries, when changing environmental and political conditions made the region habitable again. At that time, settlers that came to be known as 'Frisians' repopulated the coastal regions. Medieval and later accounts of 'Frisians' refer to these 'new Frisians' rather than to the ancient Frisii." The Frisii were the indigenous people of the Netherlands & countries along the North Sea. When I was in Hamm visiting my mom's cousin, Heinz, I mentioned, on my dad's side, I am Frisian. Heinz told me along the North Sea in Germany are people who speak another language; Frisian. I believe this is East Frisian. North Frisian spoken in Denmark. AND don't forget the 3 groups of Frisian Islands. I read that these Frisian Germans consider themselves Frisian FIRST, German second. My dad's 2nd cousin, Roelof Boltje, dredged/made the Copacabana. Look up R. Boltje en Zonen on youtube. There are about 18 videos of him & his business. There's a plaque at the Copacabana Beach with our name on it. The nerve of the Dutch to FINALLY make the Frisian language an OFFICIAL language in 1955. Mighty white of the Dutch, ya think???!!! Frisian language is much OLDER than the Dutch language...!!!! I found out last year via AncestryDNA that I am 6% Euro Jew. I narrowed it my my dad's side; I think his Frisian dad, my pake. I was told my pake's ancestors actually immigrated into Friesland from Giethoorn around 1750 AD for the peatbogs. These people are/were called Gietersens. BUT I traced BOLTJE in Friesland about 125 years prior to the main immigration of the Gietersens into Friesland. Through research I found that Giethoorn was settled 1230 AD by fugitives from the Mediterranean area. Could they have been Jewish...???? I did find info stating that these fugitives were flagellants...YIKES...!! My surname is BOLTJE not Boltjes. However, I did find info about a man, Tjeerd (??) Boltje, who gave the surname Boltje to some of his kids & the surname Boltjes to other of his kids. Weird. I have been able to trace back to my 5 time great grandfather, Hilbrand Boltje; don't know the year. BUT have traced the surname BOLTJE to about 1625. www.tresoar.nl & www.allefriezen.nl . De Vries/De Fries (The Frieze/Fries) is the #1 Frisian surname. Dijkstra & Hoekstra; 2nd & 3rd most common Frisian surnames. My great Beppe's surname was/is Waterlander.

Thus mugin hit alle liude for stan thet thi kening kerl thene fresa umbe thet kreftlike strid fri hewet ge dan. Thus, everyone may understand that King Charles set the Frisians free because of the vigorous battle."

It should be noted that the Frisii of Roman times were not Frisians. The Frisii were forced into serfdom and spread throughout the Roman empire (effectively becoming extinct), and then several centuries later the modern Frisians split off from the Saxons.

Yes Frisia was the rebuild land of the Frisii - they were refugees in Kent and Flanders etc due to the floods. They made families with Saxons or stayed in their own Frisii communities. Then they returend after the floods were over together with their Saxon families - and other Saxon and Juten settlers who were searching for new beginnings to rebuild the land and they deemed it Frisia.

Dat klopt, maar dat is bijna duizend jaar later ;)

The modern dutch word 'schat' comes from Sceatta. Schat nowadays means treasure in Dutch. Although the Frisian word for treasure is treasoar.

It is the other way around, English and you in North Germany have our roots !!! Also look at the language Dutch and Low German have the same origin ...

No, I'm East-Frisian near to the Netherlands. I'm speaking East-Frisian Low German dialect, that also the Lutherian protestants spoken in the area of Gronningen in the time around the 30 Years war in Germany and the 80 years war in the Netherlands. I also speak a little bit Sater-Frisian/ Sater-Frysk, cause I live near the swamp area in Germany, where this frisian dialect alived over centuries. The most german and dutch people speaking Dutch or Low-German in the Frisian areas from the influence of the first translation of the Holy Bible from Martin Luther. He spoke High Standard German in Saxon and so this book influenced the transformation of the Frisian languages to Low German and Dutch. High German is the standard language in Germany for this reason.

Low German, is here called Neder-Saksisch, and in the Netherlands they called this a Dutch dialect... In Germany it is the other way around, there they say the same thing about Low German, namely that it is a German dialect...

I come from the middle of the country in the province Gelderland,( the Veluwe ), the language here is also original Neder-Saksisch. The people from Gelre were a period of time together with the Frisians .. Here is a beautiful warrior song, which we fought together against the Hollanders... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jN2BlrqSkrOzj6M.html

I've never heard this before. A lot of East-Frisian people were working immigrants or soldiers for the protestants in the Netherlands in the 80 years war and after that. We called this people "Frieslandgänger" or "Hollandgänger". And a lot came back later as the Holländer/Dutch who cultivated the swamps and the coast in East-Frisia, like in the Netherlands. Low-German is Low-Saxon. I live here in the federal state of Niedersachsen/ Low Saxony. This state here was first founded in 1948 after 2. World War. Many Low-Saxons in Oldenburg, East-Frisia and the german Friesland (East-Frisian area,occupied by the low saxon Oldenburg) voted for another name of this federal State called Niedersachsen-Friesland (Low Saxony-Frisia) in 1948 without success. I have a frisian second name. When I visit the Netherlands, dutch people are wondering, why I'm not dutch with this name and in Germany people think, that I'm dutch with my second name, but I'm a frisian. I hate to explain this difference in both countries.

You watch too much movies
