I am a Crimean Tatar. And our people contain almost the largest number of haplogroups in the world. Our people are divided into three subethnoses: residents of the coastal regions are close to Italians and Greeks. Steppe have signs of Mongoloids. And we, the inhabitants of the mountains, descended from the Goths. They came to Crimea in the 5th-7th century. Although the people as a whole speak a common Turkic language, we are genetically very different and descended from different tribes. Three roots of one nation. Interestingly, it was only in the 16th century that our mountain ethnos finally accepted Islam and began to move from the Greek-Gothic vocabulary to the Turkic one. In appearance, we are above average, about 180-190cm, have blue and green eyes, red hair. Living in the mountains allowed us to remain Goths for a long time, although the language was lost a long time ago.

@@AdhvaithSane Actually most words in the Sanskrit are directly and indirectly used in Sinhala language and in Tripitaka Manuscripts. So for a Sinhala speaker, we can hear familiar sounds and words when Sanskrit is spoken though we can't fully understand it. Sinhala and Sanskrit is not directly related as Sinhala is a output of the fusion of mainly Pali and Sanskrit languages. But for Religious studies (Buddhism) Sanskrit is studied to have better understanding on religious and old Sinhala literacy texts. So some can fully understand Sanskrit but most of the time, Sanskrit related words are used as it is or converted to Sinhala tongue. As I haven't learned Sanskrit I can't explain the text but, as I'm familiar with old Sinhala literature words like "etha vatha", "hiina bhava", "Jugupsitha" in the Sanskrit extract are familiar to us because we use directly and we frequently hear words like those when we are speaking.

Aramaic, the language spoken by Jesus... sends shivers to my spine

@AyneEverlast 10 ай бұрын

Wonderful rendition! I’m Arab. I was able to understand Sabaic (السبئية); He was mentioning the names of some idols and declaration of king named: Shurahbi Elu-Ya'faru (شرحب الُيعفر), and the regions that were under his kingship, such as: Hadramawt (حضرموت), Saba' (سبأ), Yemen (يمن), and other Arabs such as Tihama (تِهامة), Banu Abi Karib (بنو أبي كرب). Ge’ez was also similar. I think that it spoke about different regions joined in alliance & brotherhood, such as: Aksumite Kingdom, Hadramawt (حضرموت), Saba' (سبأ), Abyssinia (الحبشة). Aramaic sounds familiar, I only understood few words about a king (Melekh) and his dream (Halumu). It’s fascinating for many speakers of the descendants of these Ancient Languages to be together here, and discuss it in “English”.

@johntse8655 11 ай бұрын

not surprising since the people of the early Chinese civilizations migrated south into Vietnam and Thailand. if you look into Chinese history, ancient invasions are all from the north and each time, it pushes the original inhabitants south. the official mandarin that is now spoken in china is actually a northern frontier dialect. one of the most powerful, prosperous and international dynasty in china which is the Tang dynasty actually speaks similar to what you are hearing. a ancient form of Hokkien, which is still widely spoken today in southern china. so Hainan, Hakka, Hokkien, Cantonese, Thai and Vietnamese languages, especially the regional dialects sounds very similar. for example, in the middle of Taiwan, up in the mountains where the original inhabitants of Taiwan lived. they speak a form of Malay that is quite similar to the Malay spoken in Malaysia, almost 3000 Km away. so it is likely people in china move outwards and southwards due to trade, disasters and wars.

@eurypema6179 11 ай бұрын

@@johntse8655I completely disagree with two of your points. For one, the language used by the Tang was almost certainly not Hokkien, which is a subbranch of the Min family that had broken off from Middle Chinese since before the writing of the Qieyun in the 600s. It was almost certainly Middle Chinese, considering that the majority of modern Sinitic languages like Cantonese and Mandarin are descendants of Middle Chinese and loans from Chinese into Vietnamese, Korean, and Japanese during the approximate period of the Tang largely reflect Middle Chinese. For another, the highlands of Taiwan speak a variety of Austronesian languages, but Malay is certainly not one of them. All Austronesian languages can be said to ultimately descend from Taiwan, as Taiwan is the Urheimat of the Austronesian languages, but it is a vast oversimplification to write off the various Austronesian languages spoken in Taiwan as varieties of Malay, just as it would be if I wrote off Javanese and Balinese as dialects of Malay. As for why Vietnamese and Old Chinese sound similar, it is true that Old Chinese borrowed words from many of the languages spoken by the ancient Yue tribes, e.g. Hmong-Mien languages and Tai-Kadai languages. It is very possible that they could have formed a sprachbund, much as the modern languages of Vietnamese, Cantonese, Pinghua, Thai, Khmer, and Zhuang also are part of the Mainland Southeast Asia sprachbund
