Is it possible to study genetic origins through the history of language?
>>
>>18049922
No. Definitely not
Linguistics are highly contradictory and often fanfics, see the PIE issue. People speak languages, not genes
>>
>>18049941
I mean in terms of tracing surnames back. I don't think you got what I was implying there.
>>
>>18049949
>I don't think you got what I was implying there.
I don't think you know that yourself, go deal with your identity crisis somewhere else. Poeple who take interest in that kind of stuff are usually in the 10% lower tier of genes and just try to feel better like fat ppl try to be body positive.
>>
>>18049941
PIE is not a fanfic just because you don't like the implications. Go to /x/. This is a history forum.
>>
>>18049955
Not me
>>18049962
little thing, there is no denying that there was a group of people who built poorly made kurgans, and who changed the genetic horizon of Europe through migratory waves, yes, but now reconstructing a language and, as the OP asked, tracing its origins and even mythology, is fanfic
>>
>>18049941
That anon from
>muh etymology IE
will appear.
The weirdo believes in any kind of nonsense and creates his own stories. He recently revealed himself to be one of the guys who make these Christian threads.
>>18049922
anyone can speak a language regardless of genes
>>
>>18049978
>poorly made kurgans
JEET ALERT!
>>
>>18049978
Reconstructing a language is not a "fanfic" you baboon.
>>>/x/
>>
>>18049941
I have the same native language as both my parents, most people do, although some people, (usually immigrants, sometimes people living in places undergoing language shifts) are exceptions.
However, my great-grandparents on my mother's side and my more distant ancestors on my father's side (18th century) spoke different languages.
There are correlations between genes and language but it's a messy signal.
>>
>>18049988
most of the time, unfortunately, there is a lot of contradiction and we cannot reconstruct religion or origin with that OP
>>18049984
>jeet
I'm Spanish, you transvestite
>>
>>18049922
No

>>18049982
You recently revealed yourself to be an unmedicated schizophrenic and compulsive liar.
>>
>>18049922
of course. french speaking blacks are direct descendants of clovis
>>
>>18049922
Not really. Hungarian is related to Uralic languages that originate from westward migration of ancient Yakutians, but Hungarians have practically zero Yakutian DNA, while genes of speakers of other Uralic languages still generally have at least some Yakutian in them. The history of Uralic languages is fascinating in general, since the languages survived almost entire or total genetic and cultural shifts.

your monkey business at /Inter/ is self-evidently boring loser

It really says something when you can't stop thinking about someone even when they're not there and they didn't make the posts.
Commit yourself to the looney bin.

>Spanish
then why are you shitting on your own ancestors Pablo?
>>
>>18051581
We have less than 24% steppe
And who cares about 4000 BC peoples?
>>
>>18050552
The strange thing is that although it's not you, they post the same images and even the same copied and pasted answers. Suspicious, right? Stop with these Christianity threads, damn it.
>>
>>18051898
Retard. I don't make Christianity threads. I'm not religious and I don't find the history of Christianity or Judaism to be particularly interesting these days.
>>
>>18051909
Come on, stop being a liar, we know it's you, it's one thing to hate Christianity for some reason and another to keep brooding over it every day with these low-quality spammers, you're a disgrace and you were so rude that they just asked for the sources of those graphics, you accused them all of being Indian, congratulations on your maturity and look for better ones from impartial authors, faggot
>>
>>18051960
No he claimed to be Russian and says he "spoke to Perun" I knew this linguistic Aryan nonsense would lead to this
>>18049922
It depends anon, I didn't understand your question exactly
>>
>>18049922
No, language does not follow genes in any consistent way. America is full of people who speak English despite having little or no English ancestry, or even European ancestry in some cases. The Turkish language is verifiably related to Yakut, even though the Turks and the Yakuts look quite different.
>>18049949
Surnames are not perfectly correlated to genes either, because adoption and infidelity both exist.
>>18049978
You may dispute particular aspects of the reconstruction, but there is no question that the Indo-European languages are related to each other.
>>
>>18051960
Take your meds. I do not know what you're talking about at all. I don't have time to make Christianity threads.

>>18051963
>No he claimed to be Russian and says he "spoke to Perun"
I've never said this.
>>
>>18052000
not him but I think he's talking about a Russian who creates anti-Christianity threads and uses his sources or something like that but like he writes very similarly
>>18051967
How they could reconstructed their religion?
>>
>>18052021
You've made me curious enough to look at desuarchive but I don't know what to search for.
>>
>>18052021
We can't know a lot about it, but we can at least notice cognate theonyms and similar myths and make some reasonable educated guesses about the general shape of it. I agree that any attempt to actually practice "PIE religion" would have to involve a LOT of "frog DNA" though.
>>
>>18052034
Unlikely, at least?
>>18052031
he's just a stupid Russian spammer
>>
The strongest results come when linguistics, genetics, and archaeology are combined. That’s why studies of Austronesian expansions are so compelling, because they align across all three fields.

impressive logic
