No, there isn't. Sanskrit is Indo-European and Hebrew is Semitic. Both
languages have been thoroughly classified and analyzed by the superior
minds of Western linguists.

To hell with them. J-Doc (or his friend V-Dub) would rather believe a
freelance American crank, Gene D. ("I have in my files enough
information to provide a large volume about the ancient Indo-Turkic
(Kuru) Phoenicians' domination of every region on earth. Various names
of God Shiva also existed in every part of this globe.") Matlock, who
draws on a truly oddball Englishman, Godfrey Higgins (1772-1833), who
apparently wrote two fat volumes ("Anacalypsis") proving the Hebrews
came from India. Based, of course, on hundreds of pages of the usual
rubbish.

Myself Mallu, Yourself?

It is really funny to see a non-Hindu like Lady Kaka (aka the Muckeraj
with a phony doctorate) go apeshit about everybody and everything having
roots in India and/or Hinduism. I am sure there are equally koooky Jews
who would take the same trash and spin a story that has lost tribes
scattered worldwide, including India. Could someone persuade Lady Kaka
to move (back) to Israel? Maybe she can copy-paste herself over?

About the Jihadi Loon Squad:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A jihadi loon is someone like Jade Muckeraj.

"Jade Muckeraj" aka "The Old Cow of Hawaii" <char...@fraudsrus.com>
tries her best to pretend she is a Hindu -- cutting and pasting, and
even doctoring what others post/write about Hindus/Hinduism on the
internet, deliberately pidginizing Sanskrit and providing wrong
translations, inventing brand new books in the Mahabharat (reducing it
to Muckabharat), stalking and abusing people who disagree with her by
hijacking their posts, and then cuts and pastes about Hindu ethics and
moans self-righteously about honesty -- and succeeds spectacularly in
convincing all, except other jihadi loons, that she is not a Hindu.
She is in fact a creepy jihadi loon, who thinks she owns the newsgroup
s.c.indian, and has absolutely no problem slandering anyone. As a
Indian citizen supposedly, she meddles in US political issues, and
advocates civil war in India.

About goon 'Myself, Mallu. Yourself?' (V. Bhattathiri)
<KalluM...@gmail.com[ and the goon's flunky and sexual pervert
Dayashankar M. Joshi 'DMJoshi' <jos...@gmail.com[
[Rakesh Tiwari, Satish Kumar write]

About the terrorist Goon Squad:

As everyone knows, a goon is a bully or thug who terrorizes or tries
to do away with opposition.

"Myself, Mallu. Yourself?" (V. Bhattathiri) <KalluM...@gmail.com[
tries his best to be a bully -- telling others what and when to post,
where to post and where not to post, deliberately publishing lies
about others, stalking and abusing them with hate speech -- but fails
miserably. He is really stressed out, and like his lap dog Prem
Thomas (who currently posts as "P. Rajah" <us...@this.com[, and issues
*death threats* to people), is priming himself for conditions such as
stroke and heart disease. Others in the Goon Squad include
Dayashankar M. Joshi "DMJoshi" <jos...@gmail.com[ who displays
unquestioning obedience to Goon Squad thugs, and the instigator who
posts as "Bholu" <bh...@hotmail.com[

The Goon Squad currently post most of their abuse through eternal-
september.org and by writing someone else's name or handle in the
"From:" header -- their favorite now is "fana...@gmail.com" (note
the extra "b" and "gmail.com") to make it appear as if the posts are
from "fan...@aol.com", who has been a regular poster for many years.

Take proven sexual pervert Dayashankar M. Joshi to see his psychiatrist

Dayashankar has proven himself to be quite vulgar of mind and
expression. He has also demonstrated that he publishes lies as well
as malicious defamataion based on lies.

One may wish to contact Deep Joshi, Hansaben Joshi, Vikesh Khakhar
and Rashmi Khakhar about making sure that sexual pervert Dayashankar
M. Joshi gets to see his psychiatrist regularly. Perhaps they can
help.

[ outbursts about sodomizing the "enemy" and his mother and sisters as
[ well. Unwittingly or deliberately, Shriman Bhattahiri is encouraging
[ His Holeness Dayashankar Joshi to continue to indulge in his fantasies

[
[ Shriman Bhattahiri's expression of indignant outrage is at best a case
[ of naivety. At worst, Shriman Bhattahiri is acting agent provocateur

[
[ Far better (and kinder) if His Holeness Dayashankar Joshi is told

[

Vennemann is a real linguist, proposing evidence for IE-Semitic (or A-
A) contact, with a totally different scenario from Matlock & Co. Not
many people buy it, but at least he knows what he's doing.

Sigh. Another enthusiast adding nothing to the lengthy history of

Phil Baldi and someone reviewed TV's "Vasco-Semitica" or whatever it's
called book from the Latinist point of view -- he sent me the ms. a
long time ago; I think it was for *Lingua*.

They didn't find much credible in it.

"Makes a compelling case", does it? Can we quote you on that? or did
you copy it from a publisher's/editor's blurb? And would you care to
comment on how this relates to your repeated contention that PIE
laryngeals were an absurdity, if not an obscenity?

Found this tremendous data source.

http://starling.rinet.ru/index2.php?lan=en

The Anatolian IE evidence seems not to support the structural reasons
IE "Larynegeals" were conjectured in the first place. Anatolian IE
laryngeals are simply there and and this research shows
correspondences of the type AA Laryngeal to related IE words without
it, and in many cases without Anatolian IE attestation.

While Nostratic maybe a pure flight of fancy, the Russians'
comparative research across macrofamilies deserves careful study..

So what exactly are you proposing/admitting now? Anatolian laryngeals
are "simply there" (whatever you mean by that)? PIE did not have
laryngeals but a putative Nostratic ancestor did? Or what?

And according to this gentleman - "Indo-Hittite" is back,

http://starling.rinet.ru/Texts/anatnost.pdf

So can we all go home now?

Brugmann et al. seem to have reconstructed "Narrow Indo European".
How can Hittite, that lacks the widely attested core IE words for
"husband", "wife", "son","daughter", "father", "mother", "brother" and
"sister" (an observation that can never be seen in boilerplate
writings - Kazanas however didn't miss it) shed any light on anything
to do with core IE?

The incomplete delaryngealization of Anatolian IE just a fact that has
no structural implications for core IE - any support it seems to give
to Saussure's fantasies are just coincidence (if you throw a bunch of
'h's at a language - some would land where Saussure would have
expected them and as always no statistical studies exist to eliminate
the possibility that some h's being in the right place are due to
chance).

Presence or absence of specific vocabulary items has nothing
whatsoever to do with demonstrating whether languages are related and
what their family tree is.

Do share with us the psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic mechanisms
by which h's are "thrown" at a language and "land" someplace.

Which statistical methods in lingujistics have you investigated?

So it's still a mystery what your latest fit of excitement is about.
Hittite laryngeals, you say, are just a random occurrence, with no
relation to PIE, or to Saussure's theory, or to Semitic (those
"uncivilized languages" which have actual laryngeals).
In which case all this Nostratic stuff is of no significance at all.
A year or so ago I thought you were writing a book. Now it's like
you've completely run out of ideas.

If you've been paying attention here over the last few years, you'll

Dr, Gray's bio/publications page shows he has solid academic
credentials. Hard to explain why he would publish something like this
and also claim

'Russell’s research has made significant contributions to the fields
of linguistics, animal cognition, philosophy of biology and
behavioural phylogenetics. He pioneered the application of
computational evolutionary methods to questions about linguistic
prehistory. This work has helped solve the 200 year-old debate on the
origin of Indo-European languages, dubbed by Diamond and Bellwood
(2003) as “the most recalcitrant problem in historical linguistics”.'

His background is in biological/evolutionary classification.
His job is with a Psychology Department.
As Nathan pointed out, he's not a linguist, and doesn't claim to be,
though he may claim to have made contributions to linguistics.

Perhaps it will help the rest of us get up to your speed if you can
explain why this is hard to explain?
And why you are suddenly excited about this blog about a 2003 paper of
Gray's?

His work has been discussed in some linguistic forum - I forget
which. It looks like he used methods similar to Ringe's (i.e,
sophomoric) - but at least his word list might be of interest. As the
"great white hope" to dethrone Sanskrit - Hittite seems really pitiful
and but for the mistaken notion that it supports Saussure's structural
conjectures the laryngeal fad might not have proliferated to the
extent that it has.

This view from 1969 seems reasonable (inexplicably, JSTOR gives one
free access)

http://cafe.rapidus.net/hwittman/linguistique/1969d-ied.pdf

"we find for
Hittite indices of 1.95 and .42 comparable
to the 1.90 and .46 indices for Modern
Bengali."

He gives

"Vedic 2.56 .08
Classical Sanskrit 2.59 .09"

(the first index is the synthesis index, second one the agglutination
index).

S S Misra has independently found many MIA feattures in Hittite.

It seems to be a creole or hybdrid language spoken by a rump IE
speaking population that moved to Anatolia whose language was
afterwards influenced massively by local non-IE langauges. The
"relaryngealization" swimming against the general IE current was
either accidental (like English sprouting the glottal stop in the last
century or so) or due to local influence.

Of course. He's made widely-pubicized claims about linguistic matters.
I still haven't figured out what your point is here.

In other words, the similarity of his methods to Ringe's consists in
nothing but your ignorant contempt for both.

- but at least his word list might be of interest.

Why? He hasn't discovered any new data.

Does this mean that you see a general "delaryngealization" current
among other IE languages?

the Lago Maggiore with Ascona and Locarno goes
over into the grim scenery of the Alps, a place where
tradesmen heading for north implored good weather,
while those who came from the north thanked for the
good weather and the luck they had in traversing
the mountains by throwing precious objects into
the river (many have been found, many more are
still buried in the river bed). TYR became emphatic
Middle Helladic Sseyr (Phaistos Disc, Derk Ohlenroth)
Doric Sseus (Wilhelm Larfeld) Homeric Zeus. Also
Zeus was originally a weather god, and also he could
appear as a bull. DhAG became Dios, byname of Zeus.
TYR CA became Turc-. ShA PAD became Shiva, and
TYR CA Durga, an emanation of Shiva's wife. TYR
became the androgynous sun archer TIr of the
Armenain Bronze Age. The variation SA TYR NOS,
mind NOS of the one who overcomes in the double
sense of rule and give TYR from above, in downward
direction SA, became Saturnus Saturn, founder of the
golden age in Latium, mentioned as TYRSANOS on
an Etruscan shard found in the agora of Athens.
TYR AS became *tiwaz and then Tir, Norse god of
justice and war, TYR alone Thor, god of thunder.
TYR in the emphatic Middle Helladic form of Sseyr
has a cognate in the Serri bull of the Hurrians and
Hittites, a weather god. Another cognate is the name
of Mount Seir in the Negev, abode of Jahwe, a storm
god and 'rider of clouds', worshipped as a bull on top
of a hill near Samaria. His name enfolds the long
double formula to ShA CA and DhAG CA, while
ShA DhAG may account for Judaea, (land under
the heavenly) ruler, the able one. DhAG meaning
able, good in the sense of able, is a word of very
many derivatives, among them English day, invoking
the god as "father of day" (Bob Dylan, New Morning).

Shape shifting was part of mythology and is reflected
in variations of the religious formulae. DhAG PAD TYR
became Dis pater, byname of ShA PAD TYR Jupitter
Jupiter Jovis Giove, dyaus pita in Vedic Sanskrit,
and Illyrian Dei-patrous. The Greek version would have
been Dios pataer, however, DhAG Dios was replaced by
TYR Sseyr Sseus Zeus, and the formula became Zeus pataer.
DhAG meaning able, good in the sense of able, and TYR
meaning overcomer, as verb to overcome in the double
sense of rule and give, are part of an older formula
invoking the goddess, DhAG TYR DhAG, wherefrom Greek
thygataer Dios and Sanskrit duhita dive, while the
variation DhAG DhAG TYR became Lithuanian dievo dukte.
The able overcomer who ruled and gave had once been
the goddess but was turned into the daughter of the god,
for example Athene, one of many emanations of the goddess,
became the daughter of Zeus, emerging from his head in
full armour, sign of her ancient power.

the tongue-root area cannot produce the variety of sounds that can be

I suspect that the production of radical sounds uses a different area
of the brain than the area that controls fine-motor activity used for
regular sounds.

The English glottal stop seems to have originated from poor speakers
(cockneys) and then diffused all the way up to Royalty. Our good
Dusan has also cited modern day laryngealization of Serbian by Bosnian
Muslim Serbs as a form of identity politics.

But the overall trend is probably universal - especially given the
present day pressure on all languages to either die or become more
like English.

Which of these senses are you suggesting applies to the glottalization
in English??

Neither can the lips, but we do not observe a corresponding
progressive delabialization.

Assuming that you have suddenly started to refer to laryngeal sounds
as "radical" and non-laryngeals as "regular", you would at least have
a testable hypothesis here -- though even if true it would not prove
your historical claim.

And therefore doesn't count as a counterexample to your proposed
trend??

Really, this makes less sense the more you elaborate it.

You now seem willing to admit that IE languages had laryngeals in the
past, something you vehemently denied in the past. But, you claim,
there is a universal trend to get rid of laryngeals. Except, it seems,
for /h/. And except of course for languages that introduce them, like
English (and others one could name).
And you've still never revealed how long your list of "civilized
languages" is.

2b sounds like something I might have come up with specifically to
characterize it - amazing to find it in the dictionary.

Don't be silly. apart from p,b,f,v - lip rounding gives us u,w,o and
the labials can easily form clusters with resonants. But all radicals
sound like r,g or h and try making clusters with them.

Burrow is just about the only writer who doesn't turn into a teenage
girl swooning over a rock star when discussing Hittite and Saussure.

There are two unrelated things going on.

(1) h's in Hittite not present in cognate IE proper.

(2) h's in Hittite where Saussure prediced a "Sonant
Coefficient" (this would be subset of (1)).

Burrow is none too happy as to how much Hittite supports (2).

The problem is that h/no-h also distiguishes IE and AA/Semitic in a
significantly large number of related words. Did some ancestor of IE
proper have these 'h's? - its possible. I would then say that Old
Indian removed them through a language committee type process and
reexported a cleaner PIE. Saussure's structural conjectures remain
conjectures and are totally implausible considering the Indian
evdience as a whole.

Ah. So this is a technical description within your own personal theory
of sound change, where some sound changes are intentional and others
are "through carelessness", some have "fortunate" and others
"unfortunate" results?

Not independently of other articulators it doesn't. And despite your
caricature, the range of "radical" sounds and effects is just as
great.

and

And all labials sound like ba-ba wa-wa. Really, this is childish.

>and try making clusters with them.

Speakers of languages that actually have them can hear the
differences, and make clusters with them.
Oh yes, we really are back in sci-fi linguistics land.

Is There A Connection Between
Ancient Indian And Hebrew Language?

A scholar finds compelling evidence for ancient Indian
influence on a global scale.

About the terrorist Goon Squad:

"Myself, Mallu. Yourself?" (V. Bhattathiri)
<KalluM...@gmail.com> tries his best to be a bully --
telling others what and when to post, where to post and
where not to post, deliberately publishing lies about
others, stalking and abusing them with hate speech -- but
fails miserably. He is really stressed out, and like his
lap dog Prem Thomas (who currently posts as "P. Rajah"
<us...@this.com>, and issues *death threats* to people),
is priming himself for conditions such as stroke and
heart disease. Others in the Goon Squad include
Dayashankar M. Joshi "DMJoshi" <jos...@gmail.com> who
displays unquestioning obedience to Goon Squad thugs, and
the instigator who posts as "Bholu" <bh...@hotmail.com>

The Goon Squad currently posts most of their abuse
through eternal-september.org and by writing someone
else's name or handle in the "From:" header -- their
favorite now is "fana...@gmail.com" (note the extra "b"
and "gmail.com") to make it appear as if the posts are
from "fan...@aol.com", who has been a regular poster for
many years.

Not all Indians, only 'bhaiyyas.' ;-) That explains why the old cow Lady

About the Jihadi Loon Squad:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A jihadi loon is someone like Jade Muckeraj.

"Jade Muckeraj" aka "The Old Cow of Hawaii" <char...@fraudsrus.com>
tries her best to pretend she is a Hindu -- cutting and pasting, and
even doctoring what others post/write about Hindus/Hinduism on the
internet, deliberately pidginizing Sanskrit and providing wrong
translations, inventing brand new books in the Mahabharat (reducing it
to Muckabharat), stalking and abusing people who disagree with her by
hijacking their posts, and then cuts and pastes about Hindu ethics and
moans self-righteously about honesty -- and succeeds spectacularly in
convincing all, except other jihadi loons, that she is not a Hindu.
She is in fact a creepy jihadi loon, who thinks she owns the newsgroup
s.c.indian, and has absolutely no problem slandering anyone. As a
Indian citizen supposedly, she meddles in US political issues, and
advocates civil war in India.

This is irrelevant.
