PIE is the ‘mother of all IE languages’ “By the 19th century, linguists knew that all modern Indo-European languages descended from a single tongue, called Proto-Indo- European, or PIE, it was spoken by a people who lived from roughly 4500 to 2500 B.C., and left no written texts. The question became, what did PIE sound like?” (Eric A Powell in http://www.archaeology.org/exclusives/ articles/1302-proto-indo-european-schleichers-fable) PIE is ‘is by far the best understood of all proto-languages of its age’ Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is the linguistic reconstruction of the common ancestor of the Indo-European languages, the most widely spoken language family in the world. Far more work has gone into reconstructing PIE than any other proto-language, and it is by far the best understood of all proto-languages of its age. The vast majority of linguistic work during the 19th century was devoted to reconstruction of PIE or its daughter proto-languages (e.g. Proto-Germanic), and most of the modern techniques of linguistic reconstruction such as the comparative method were developed as a result. These methods supply all of the knowledge concerning PIE, since there is no written record of the language. PIE is estimated to have been spoken as a single language around 3500 BCE. during the Neolithic Age, though estimates vary by more than a thousand years. According to the prevailing Kurgan hypothesis, the original homeland of the Proto-Indo-Europeans may have been in the Pontic–Caspian steppe of Eastern Europe. Work has also gone into reconstructing their culture and religion. As Proto-Indo-Europeans became isolated from each other through the 2 | Proto-Indo-European Language Indo-European migrations, the dialects of PIE spoken by the various groups diverged by undergoing certain sound laws and shifts in morphology to transform into the known ancient and modern Indo- European languages (Credit: Wikipedia Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto-Indo-European_language) ‘Since the speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language did not develop a writing system, we have no physical evidence of it.’ “The Indo-European languages are a family of related languages that today are widely spoken in the Americas, Europe, and also Western and Southern Asia. Just as languages such as Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian are all descended from Latin, Indo- European languages are believed to derive from a hypothetical language known as Proto-Indo-European, which is no longer spoken. It is highly probable that the earliest speakers of this language originally lived around Ukraine and neighbouring regions in the Caucasus and Southern Russia, then spread to most of the rest of Europe and later down into India. The earliest possible end of Proto-Indo-European linguistic unity is believed to be around 3400 BCE. Since the speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language did not develop a writing system, we have no physical evidence of it. The science of linguistics has been trying to reconstruct the Proto-Indo- European language using several methods and, although an accurate reconstruction of it seems impossible, we have today a general picture of what Proto-Indo-European speakers had in common, both linguistically and culturally. In addition to the use of comparative methods, there are studies based on the comparison of myths, laws, and social institutions.” (Credit: Cristian Violatti Link: http://www.ancient.eu/Indo-European_Languages/) ‘the ancestors of much of Europe and Asia once spoke the same mother tongue…’ Alvaro Hans | 3 “Between approximately 4,500 and 2,500 B.C., the ancestors of much of Europe and Asia once spoke the same mother tongue, a language referred to as Proto-Indo-European, or PIE. Although there is no written record of such a language, linguist Dr. Andrew Byrd recently attempted to reconstruct his own recordings of PIE language for Archaeology magazine, building off three centuries’ worth of scholarly work on the topic.” (Credit: Meredith Bennett-Smith Link: http://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/proto-indo-european- language-ancestors_n_4005545) “Are modern languages descended from a common ancestor? Common features, especially common words, shared by many of the languages used in Europe, India, and Asia, led scholars to believe that these languages may have developed from the same source. That source language was never written down and is now extinct, but it has a name: it is called the “Proto Indo-European” language (“PIE”), and the family of languages believed to have developed from it is called “Indo-European” (“IE”).” (Credit: Link: http://colfa.utsa.edu/drinka/pie/pie.html) “The (Proto)Indo-European Language 1. The original *IE language was spoken around 5, 000 BC by a people who either lived between the Vistula River in Poland and the Caucasus Mountains in the Southwestern USSR (traditional) or in Anatolia in modern day Turkey (Renfrew, see “The Origins of the Indo-European Languages” in this book.) 2. As the tribe grew larger and spread throughout the region, dialects arose which, over time, became more and more mutually incomprehensible. When different dialects become mutually incomprehensible, they are different languages. Then dialects developed in the new languages as the tribes prospered and expanded until a tree of related languages and dialects developed and all the languages spoken throughout the IE area. 4 | Proto-Indo-European Language 3. We may re establish the IE language by comparing the languages spoken today which devolved from it and establishing the historical rules by which each dialect developed into independent languages (The Comparative Method).” (Credit: Link: http://www.departments.bucknell.edu/linguistics/ lectures/05lect22.html) ‘the irony is that till today there is no literature in the world about the so called PIE’ “Well, the irony is that till today there is no literature in the world about the so called PIE.
