  • Sanskrit-Slavic-Sinitic Their Common Linguistic Heritage © 2017 IJSR Received: 14-09-2017 Milorad Ivankovic Accepted: 15-10-2017
    International Journal of Sanskrit Research 2017; 3(6): 70-75 International Journal of Sanskrit Research2015; 1(3):07-12 ISSN: 2394-7519 IJSR 2017; 3(6): 70-75 Sanskrit-Slavic-Sinitic their common linguistic heritage © 2017 IJSR www.anantaajournal.com Received: 14-09-2017 Milorad Ivankovic Accepted: 15-10-2017 Milorad Ivankovic Abstract Omladinski trg 6/4, SRB-26300 Though viewing from the modern perspective they seem to belong to very distant and alien traditions, the Vrsac, Serbia Aryans, the Slavs and the Chinese share the same linguistic and cultural heritage. They are the only three cultures that have developed and preserved the religio-philosophical concept of Integral Dualism, viz. ś ukram-kr̥ sṇ aṃ or yang-yin (see Note 1). And the existing linguistic data firmly supports the above thesis. Key Words: l-forms, l-formant, l-participles, ping, apple, kolo Introduction In spite of persistent skepticism among so called Proto-Indo-Europeanists, in recent years many scholars made attempts at detecting the genetic relationship between Old Chinese and Proto-Indo-European languages (e.g. T.T. Chang, R.S. Bauer, J.X. Zhou, J.L. Wei, etc.), but they proposed solely lexical correspondences with no morphological ones at all. However, there indeed exist some very important morphological correspondences too. The L-Forms in Chinese In Modern Standard Mandarin Chinese there is a particle spelled le and a verb spelled liao, both functioning as verb-suffixes and represented in writing by identical characters. Some researchers hold that the particle le actually derived from liao since “the verb liao (meaning “to finish, complete”), found at the end of the Eastern Han (25-220 CE) and onwards, around Wei and Jin Dynasties (220-581 CE) along with other verbs meaning “to finish” such as jing, qi, yi and bi started to occur in the form Verb (Object) + completive to indicate the completion of the action indicated by the main verb.

  • 1 Introduction 2 Background L2/15-023
    Title: Preliminary Proposal to Encode the Tocharian Script Author: Lee Wilson ([email protected]) Date: 2015-01-26 1 Introduction Tocharian is a Brahmi-based script historically used to write the Tocharian languages (ISO 639-3: xto, txb), traditionally referred to as Tocharian A and Tocharian B, which belong to the Tocharian branch of the Indo-European language family. The script was in use primarily during the 8th century CE by the people inhabiting the northern edge of the Tarim Basin of the Taklamakan Desert in what is now Xinjiang in western China, an area formerly known as Turkestan. The Tocharian script is attested in over 4,000 extant manuscripts that were discovered in the early 20th century in the Tarim Basin. The discovery was significant for two reasons: first, it revealed a previously unknown branch of the Indo-European language family, and second, it marked the easternmost geographical extent of that language family. The most distinctive aspect of Tocharian script is the vowel transcribed as ä, commonly known as the Fremdvokal, and the modifications to the script that it entails. This vowel is indicated with a vowel sign not employed in scripts outside of the Tarim Basin region. However, this vowel sign is not commonly used when writing Tocharian. Instead, sequences of a consonant followed by the Fremdvokal are most typically indicated by 11 CV signs known as Fremdzeichen, which are unique to Tocharian. 2 Background The Tocharian script is a north-eastern descendant of Brahmi script, related to Khotanese, Tibetan, and Siddham scripts, which was used along the Tarim Basin in the Taklamakan Desert in what is now Xinjiang in western China.

  • Indo-European Languages and Branches
    Indo-European languages and branches Language Relations One of the first hurdles anyone encounters in studying a foreign language is learning a new vocabulary. Faced with a list of words in a foreign language, we instinctively scan it to see how many of the words may be like those of our own language.We can provide a practical example by surveying a list of very common words in English and their equivalents in Dutch, Czech, and Spanish. A glance at the table suggests that some words are more similar to their English counterparts than others and that for an English speaker the easiest or at least most similar vocabulary will certainly be that of Dutch. The similarities here are so great that with the exception of the words for ‘dog’ (Dutch hond which compares easily with English ‘hound’) and ‘pig’ (where Dutch zwijn is the equivalent of English ‘swine’), there would be a nearly irresistible temptation for an English speaker to see Dutch as a bizarrely misspelled variety of English (a Dutch reader will no doubt choose to reverse the insult). When our myopic English speaker turns to the list of Czech words, he discovers to his pleasant surprise that he knows more Czech than he thought. The Czech words bratr, sestra,and syn are near hits of their English equivalents. Finally, he might be struck at how different the vocabulary of Spanish is (except for madre) although a few useful correspondences could be devised from the list, e.g. English pork and Spanish puerco. The exercise that we have just performed must have occurred millions of times in European history as people encountered their neighbours’ languages.

  • Linguistic History and Historical Linguistics
    Linguistic history and historical linguistics George van Driem University of Bern This invited response to a piece by LaPolla, published in issue 39/2 of LTBA, addresses both LaPolla’s misrepresentations of the history of linguistics and his flawed understanding of historical linguistics. The history of linguistic thought with regard to the Tibeto-Burman or Trans-Himalayan language family vs. the Indo-Chinese or “Sino-Tibetan” family tree model is elucidated and juxtaposed against the remarkable robustness of certain ahistorical myths and the persis- tence of unscientific argumentation by vocal proponents of the Sino-Tibetanist paradigm, such as LaPolla. Keywords: Tibeto-Burman linguistics, Trans-Himalayan, historical linguistics, history of linguistics 1. Rāvaṇa and LaPolla महाकाल Mahākāla ‘great blackness’ is a Śaivite god, who originally embodied the male counterpart to Kālī. He was subsumed into the Buddhist pantheon as a guard- ian of the Dharma, in which manifestation he bears the name of धम㔮पाल Dharma- pāla or, in Tibetan, ᭼ས་སྐྱོང་ Chos-skyon̂. This Tantric god embodies a wrathful aspect of the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara in the Vajrayāna Buddhism of Nepal, Tibet, the Dàlǐ kingdom,1 the Tangut kingdom, Mongolia and Japan, whereas lord Mahākāla served as the patron deity of the Mongol and Manchu imperial courts in China during the Yuán and Qīng periods. 1. In territorial terms, the Dàlǐ kingdom (937–1253), based in Dàlǐ and covering most of today’s Yúnnán province and adjacent portions of Sìchuān and Guìzhōu provinces and neighbouring portions of Burma, Laos and Vietnam, succeeded the earlier Nánzhào kingdom (649–903), cen- tred in Wēishān.
