You're thinking of lithuanian @The Enlightened Shepherd

2017-04-18 21:30:10 UTC  

how do you stand with foreign languages Y'ALL

2017-04-18 21:30:53 UTC  

I honestly never had a deep desire to learn any other than English, unless I'm provided with an opportunity to use it

2017-04-18 21:31:13 UTC  

This whole learning new tongues and getting enligthened thing seemed to me as one giant yuppy scheme

2017-04-18 21:31:46 UTC  

Balto-slavic language kinship with indo-aryan is proof slavs aren't white

2017-04-18 21:32:04 UTC  

Indo-Aryans were White

2017-04-18 21:32:14 UTC  

My theory is they're renegade slaves from the Persian empire

2017-04-18 21:32:24 UTC  

Who fled west

2017-04-18 21:32:43 UTC  

Indo-Aryan peoples were the same thing as European Aryans

2017-04-18 21:32:50 UTC  

they only moved to India, hence INDO-Aryan

2017-04-18 21:33:04 UTC  

Mind blown

2017-04-18 21:33:25 UTC  

Doesn't mean that Europeans = persians

2017-04-18 21:33:32 UTC  

Not today in 2017

2017-04-18 21:33:48 UTC  

But when they split up from central Asia, with their native tongues, they were same people

2017-04-18 21:33:58 UTC  

And that's where we source our tongues from

2017-04-18 21:34:12 UTC  

That's when the whole Proto-Indo-European started splitting into branches

2017-04-18 21:34:13 UTC  

Maybe the Aryans weren't white

2017-04-18 21:34:21 UTC  

They got assimilated into white europe

2017-04-18 21:34:23 UTC  

Of course they are

2017-04-18 21:34:24 UTC  

Like the huns

2017-04-18 21:34:33 UTC  

Why of course

2017-04-18 21:34:59 UTC  

How does Vedic literature describe Aryan people

2017-04-18 21:35:07 UTC  

As White in skin, of course

2017-04-18 21:35:22 UTC  

ANYWAY

2017-04-18 21:35:53 UTC  

Studies had shown that Slavic people are possibly, among other peoples, also related to ancient Schytians

2017-04-18 21:36:01 UTC  

who were themselves, indeed of Indo-Iranian origin

2017-04-18 21:36:05 UTC  

White in skin

2017-04-18 21:36:23 UTC  

But that would mostly be true of Eastern Slavic peoples

2017-04-18 21:36:31 UTC  

and Western to an extent

2017-04-18 21:37:42 UTC  

I think the original, ur-slavic people, were pretty swarthy

2017-04-18 21:37:49 UTC  

They were described as such

2017-04-18 21:38:10 UTC  

They got assimilated into Europeans

2017-04-18 21:38:13 UTC  

The only description of ancient Slavic peoples describes them the same way as Goths

2017-04-18 21:38:18 UTC  

Untrue

2017-04-18 21:38:21 UTC  

being pale in skin, and of ginger hair

2017-04-18 21:38:30 UTC  

Sec

2017-04-18 21:38:32 UTC  

Procopius - the earliest account of Slavic peoples

2017-04-18 21:38:46 UTC  

He described their looks, their pantheon and their fighting habits

2017-04-18 21:39:23 UTC  

He said they were "ruddy"

2017-04-18 21:40:13 UTC  

i have never seen a swarthy person to be "ruddy" as well

2017-04-18 21:40:37 UTC  

being "ruddy" is a phenomenon of white skin
