Even in different countries, the words and grammar of the language used may be similar as a result of affecting each other. Professor Gregory Guy of Linguistics Department of New York University, 8000 years thought to have existed on earth from the word ' Lox ' whose pronunciation and meaning have hardly changed even though it has been used in multiple languages for 8000 years It tells stories up to the previous language ' Proto-Indo-European '.

In the United States Hiyaibushi that of smoked salmon that has been processed Rocks called the (Lox), bagels across the Rocks has been considered one of the 'New York seems to food'. While many people are passionate about the taste of Rocks, Guy is passionate about Rocks from a different perspective.

'Rocks means' smoked salmon 'in modern English, but in the Proto-Indo-European language that is 8000 years ago it means' shake. The fish that Rocks points to have not changed There has been no change in pronunciation, which hasn't changed for 8000 years, 'says Guy.
Proto-Indo-European is the language that should be called the origin of languages spoken in India and Europe. Thomas Young is a person who experimented with Young, who is an interference phenomenon of light , and claimed the wave theory of light, and made the word “Energy” known today, while having outstanding achievements in the field of science. He was also a genius of language who tried to decipher hieroglyphs such as Rosetta Stone and contributed to the analysis of Egyptian hieroglyphs. Young discovers that there is a similarity between Indic and European languages, analyzes the 400 languages that once existed on the European continent, and realizes that the word and grammatical similarities between these languages are not accidental. Yes. In 1813, Young claimed that 'These languages belong to one big thing,' Indo-European '. Proto-Indo-European languages are ancestors of all languages in this Indo-European language.

English, Hindi, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, etc. are all considered to be Indo-European, and about half of the world today speaks Indo-European languages. Languages that belong to Indo-European remain words that have similar meanings and pronunciation, etc. Linguists compare the words of languages that belong to Indo-European to clarify Proto-Indo-European languages. I did. For example, 'Yoga', whose origin is in the Indo-European Sanskrit language, is known to be a distant relative of the English ' Yoke ', which means 'the yoke' that connects a pair of cows with their neck. is. However, the question, 'which words in which languages have a common source' seems to have plagued linguists for the second century.
In modern English, more than half of all words are borrowed from other languages, but some words are stable and almost unchanged. We call such unchanged words 'core vocabulary'. It is a basic verb such as number or color, a word representing a family relationship such as 'mother' or 'father', or 'walk' or 'see'. Examining core vocabularies in different languages will tell you which languages are related. For example, there is a possible relationship between Russian 'dva' meaning '2' and 'deux' in French, German 'nacht' meaning 'night' and 'noch' in Russian, etc. .

The technique used to trace Proto-Indo-European languages was to look up similar words in two languages and analyze their patterns. If there are many similar words, the languages may have a common 'linguistic ancestry', and tracing their ancestry leads to Proto-Indo-European languages. By comparing similar words, linguists have figured out what pattern of change was there when moving from one language to another. For example, the Latin 'k' pronunciation has turned to the German 'h', so the Latin 'casa' seems to be 'house' in English.
Although there may be patterns, basically, when a word is passed from language to language and its pronunciation changes, the change is unpredictable. On the other hand, like Rox, there is also a 'word that is consistently pronounced'. Rox was considered to be one of the big clues that tied 'Where did the Indo-European language come from?' A salmon is a fish that swims against the flow of water from the sea, climbs the river, and leaves its offspring. There are not many rivers that come with salmon on the earth, so that the word “Rocks” was used, the people who used Proto-Indo-European languages lived in the suburbs of the river that came with salmon. It is likely to have been.

Proto-Indo-European languages analyzed based on these clues include words such as bears, honey, oak trees, and snow, while words that mean palm trees, elephants, lions, zebras, etc. It was not included. With the geopolitical conditions analogically derived from such words, linguists have found that Proto-Indo-European languages were born in a narrow area from Eastern Europe to the Black Sea.
In the 1950s, a tomb called ' Kurgan ' was found in the area, and it was found that civilization existed between 6000 and 8000 years ago. Also, in the course of the investigation, it turned out that this ancient civilization was breeding horses.

'Perhaps the people of the civilization who used the Indo-European language got on horseback and moved widely in the Middle East, India, and Europe. The 'Money by horse' that other civilizations did not have is This is probably the reason for the influence of Proto-Indo-European languages on many languages, ”said Guy.
