I have finally returned after months in order to speak about 5 interesting and marginalized language isolates, languages that are not related to any other known languages. These languages are from different continents and the only thing that links them is that they are not linked with any other languages. Yalla!

As a Polish person, whenever I hear "Burushaski" I get this sort of weird uncanny feeling, because it sounds and looks like a Polish adjective describing the language of some Burush people, like Angielski, Francuski, or Chiński, but instead it's a word from that language. So anyways, Burushaski is Slavic confirmed.

This is because Burushaski is comprised of two words, buru- short for Burusho, and shaski is the word for tongue or language. Like For English language, we have the word FarangShaski, or the European's tongue. The ski in itself doesn't have any meaning

But other than that, when I used Google translation, I didn't find any more common words. (Though the other word for man, njeri, is quite similar to the Burushaski word 'huri' means men) as for Alexander, many people here, especially the rulers of Hunza valley claimed descent from him, though later genetic studies negated this theory.

The distinction between and is also found in Quechuan languages. Also, I do not think that the voiceless L is all that rare. Sure, in Europe, it's essentially only Faroese, Icelandic, Welsh and some Sami languages that use it but it's pretty common in both Semitic languages and many languages of the Americas, Navajo being a prime example.

As Burusho native, I learned a lot of new things about my language especially those theories about my languages origin. also we have a phenomenon called 'relative nouns',- the subjects name changes according to the obj, like ja alchimo....... Means.... My eyes Go (your) gulchimo....means....your (go) eyes. Inmo(her) mulchimo....means...her eyes. Notice that the word for 'eyes' changes with relation to their owner. Is this phenomenon present in any other language, I wonder? Do you know. It is not found in languages that are in our neighborhood. Edit. We also have the Welsh 'l' sound that you spoke of towards the end.
@CheLanguages
@CheLanguages 5 месяцев назад
Basically you're saying that the word itself is 'chimo', everything else conjugates for the pronoun. I'm guessing you can just say 'gulchimo' without the 'go' and people would understand, making it pro-drop. Other languages do this, like Turkish for example: Kedi (cat) (Benim) Kedim (my cat) (Senin) Kedin (your cat) (Bizim) Kedimiz (our cat) The pronouns are not necessary because the inflection at the end already allows you to know who the possessor is. Burushaski seems to work like this given your example.
@CheLanguages
@CheLanguages 5 месяцев назад
Please do correct me if I'm wrong. Also, that's awesome that you speak Burushaski!
@wifil532
@wifil532 5 месяцев назад
@@CheLanguages thank you. well you are right about the purpose of the difference there, but the word is not chimo for eyes. Chimo is not a word for eyes, you can't separate the noun from ownership, so gulchimo, alchimo and mulchimo etc these are words for eyes, but chimo in itself isn't a word like kedi in Turkish for cat. Similarly, there is no single name for 'face'. It is all related to to whose face it belongs to. For my face, we use askil, for your face guskil, etc, but there is no separate word for face. I hope I have explained it well enough.

4:45 Another actually: The "l" you found is actually an r turned upside down and having a retroflex hook. It's called the "retroflex approximant" and exists in English as well, being a way to pronounce the phoneme /r/. The other sounds are retroflex sounds as well (the d with hook is NOT the Hungarian sound you mean which is a voiced palatal stop, written "ɟ" in the IPA) and they are very common across the Indian subcontinent with almost all languages there having retroflex sounds. It's what languages like Sanskrit, Hindi or Tamil are famous for, so I guess Burushaski having them as well is due to language contact, like with Santali, which it is Austroasiatic and thus related to languages like Khmer and Vietnamese which completely lack retroflex phonemes.

@CheLanguages
@CheLanguages 6 месяцев назад

@johnlastname8752
@johnlastname8752 6 месяцев назад
​@@CheLanguagesit's widely accepted in academia that the Huns were originally from the Mongolian Plateau (probably the Xiongnu in Chinese sources) and that the Hunnic elite spoke some kind of Turkic language that might be the ancestor of the Chuvash language. In North-Western India there were invasions by the White Huns and the Red Huns. The Huns that the Romans had to deal with had a Germanic majority as their population and army, but the elite was probably still Turkic speaking. There's a lot of speculation about the Huns in general because they didn't write anything themselves.
@CheLanguages
@CheLanguages 6 месяцев назад
I've just done some reading on them. Wow, I never knew how many hypotheses there were, I might have to make a video on this. They could have possibly been Iranic, Germanic, Yeniseian, Mongolic, Turkic, Uralic, Caucasian or Paleo-European. That's too many different theories there and I hope someday their true identity could be found out. I find it hard to believe the Xiongnu theory, or that they were Turkic/Mongolic/Yeniseian, it's simply too far away for the time and for populations that were known to exist. Uralic, Caucasian, Proto-Slavic, Germanic or Iranic seem the most likely to me, but that's still a lot of options wow@@johnlastname8752

@@CheLanguages re Uralo-Siberian, Wikipedia presents some linguistic evidence and indeed genetic (e.g. the distribution of haplogroup N) and archeological evidence would possibly provide support. The problem with potential cognates is distinguishing a genetic relationship and borrowing, for instance, one of the proposed cognates is the set including Proto Uralic *aja- 'drive, chase' however this set could easily be borrowed from Indo-Iranian *Hájati. I've also read some of Bomhard's articles on the wider Eurasiatic family but found his methodology unconvincing.

Indus Valley Civilization likely had multiple languages with Dravidian in the Sindh-Gujarat region, Para-Munda in Punjab Region (Jammu, Haryana, Both Pakistani and Indian Punjab, and Western Himachal), and Burushaski in the Hazara, Potohar, and Gilgit Regions of Pakistan. So it very likely was one of many languages in Indus Valley

@CheLanguages
@CheLanguages 5 месяцев назад
Hello. Many people commented about the Hungarian phoneme, that was an honest mistake and I don't know why I didn't check like I normally would. Your other question is more of an ideolectal one. I am a fluent speaker of Hebrew, and I studied Spanish in the past but have since lost my ability in it down to more than a few phrases. Notice I retain the name of a country or place, I don't say 'España' but rather 'Spain', but if I say [mɛhiːko] for Mexico, I'm sure people (epsecially American viewers) will understand me. As for Israel, when speaking Hebrew I obviously use the name Yisrael, but in English, I use the name people understand as many people don't tend to make the connection. That being said, my pronunciation of Israel is usually closer to the Hebrew than most English speakers would pronounce, being something along the lines of [ɪsraɪɫ] with an "ay" diphthong instead of an "ey", and with a soft s not a z, though if I'm speaking fast I may just pronounce it like everyone else. There might not appear to be too much logic to this, but I just pronounce things how I like and I've always done that and people have always told me "you say x funny" and I usually tell them "I want to be more accurate" though it's not always the case. Finally, I just noticed who you are, I'm a big fan of your channel and have watched your videos for a while now. Your tutorial on French accents helped me improve mine massively to the point I impressed my friend from France. Great channel!

i'm honestly baffled you say you've only ever seen the contrast of unaspirated vs. aspirated alveolar fricatives (/ts/ vs. /tsʰ/) in Georgian. for one, the unaspirate fricative in Georgian is ejective (although admittedly the realisation is so smooth that it almost sounds like pulmonal unaspirate) and the language also contrasts fully voiced /dz/. that is, however, a feature common throughout the Caucasus! _and_ also a feature of Mayan languages. apart from that it's the typical fortis-tenuis differentiation in Mandarin and many other Chinese languages though. and (albeit not with /ts/ and only marginally with /tʃ/) in Upper German varieties (Bavarian and Alemannic) also i second the concerns other had about your reasoning on /ɖ/ - for one is not the same as Hungarian /ɟ/ and secondly are neither of them particularly unusual sounds (at least not areally, where South Asia has an abundance of retroflex sounds contrasting with dentals~alveolars) lastly, Puroik's phonemes don't seem too unusual. sure the /ɬ/ is slightly uncommon but not massively so. otherwise i would say what makes it stand out is that it looks rather tame for the area, with no strikingly strong influences from neighbouring Indian or Sino-Tibetan languages.

It is definitely possible, this is why theories such as Dené-Caucasian exist. It's possible proto-Basque and Aquitanian (the other Vasconic language that went extinct) might have once been related to languages like Minoan (another isolate), Etruscan or even the Caucasian languages. The thing is, it's so far removed that's it's impossible to make a connection and we'll probably never know, unless some Divine evidence emerges. This is possibly what happened with Caucasian languages, the three families may have once been related but split apart, but it's not proven. Burushaski may have indeed been related to Yeniseian, and I've actually seen a pretty good argument that Japanese and Korean were likely related around 5000 years ago, but many modern linguists state they're separate language families

that's precisely the theory, links were found between the Yeniseian languages and Dene, which originally lead to the Dene-Yeniseian theory. This has evolved into the Dene-Caucasian language family theory which includes soooo many more languages and is much more far-fetched.@@andycockrum1212

I don't think the phrase "I love Ket" is the smartest thing to say out loud, but I'd certainly be interested in that server!
