No problem!

There are better charts online, and on some of the old FR threads, though.

There was a thread here a couple of months ago, regarding horse burials in Eastern Europe, which followed old Vedic burial instructions to the T, according to it.

"This type of genetic make-up is usually found in the eastern Mediterranean which made us think that there might have been strong connections between north-east Wales and this part of Europe somewhere in the past. "But this appears not to be the case

Sounds like they might want to rethink that.

There's a lot to be said about the incredible DNA of Welsh women as well!

Just damn!

[Havisham]

Thanks for the haplogroup. I wondered.

[Bon mots]

I agree.

Where does the Austrian language fit on that tree?

[beebuster2000]

CZJ does like somewhat Mediterranean you have to admit.

[James C. Bennett]

German is what is spoken in Austria.

You can tell a fellow genealogist a mile away. :)

He was joking at Obama’s expense, since our idiot president spoke of the “Austrian language” a few years ago.

The Hindi/English languages must be constructed similarly or we just think in the same patterns.

I've worked with a lot of Indians over the years. It's not just a language thing. We do think in the same patterns. The engineering solutions to problems are indistinguishable. Solutions that Chinese, Vietnamese, Philippine or Japanese engineers come up with, although perfectly valid, just 'feel' different. Don't know why.

What I find even more interesting is how close the senses of humor are in both cultures.

[Pharmboy]

Exact quote:

"It was interesting to see that political interaction in Europe is not that different from the United States Senate. There's a lot of I don't know what the term is in Austrian, wheeling and dealing."

Experts don’t necessarily agree:

One of the more striking and convincing evidences of the affinity of Indo-european languages that I've ever seen is the paradigms for the personal pronoun in Anglo-Saxon and Sanskrit.

That not withstanding, educated Indians learn English from an early age and English has been the linga franca of the subcontinent for the last two centuries.
