Dialogue: 0,0:00:00.03,0:00:02.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,- In the 18th century you start to have
Dialogue: 0,0:00:02.64,0:00:04.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,significant interaction between
Dialogue: 0,0:00:04.89,0:00:06.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the English and the Indians,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:06.03,0:00:08.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,especially in the East Indian Company.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:08.78,0:00:09.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And as part of that,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:09.62,0:00:11.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you start to have Western scholars start
Dialogue: 0,0:00:11.38,0:00:14.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to really study Sanskrit and the Vedas.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.60,0:00:16.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And as they do these,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.39,0:00:18.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it starts to really open up their mind
Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.28,0:00:20.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not just to the roots of Sanskrit
Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.74,0:00:23.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but also many of the Western languages
Dialogue: 0,0:00:23.68,0:00:25.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,including English itself.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.78,0:00:28.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, this is a quote in 1786
Dialogue: 0,0:00:28.82,0:00:30.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,by the English philologist,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.65,0:00:32.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,someone who studies written languages
Dialogue: 0,0:00:32.33,0:00:33.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,especially from historical sources,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.77,0:00:35.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Sir William Jones.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.29,0:00:38.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He wrote, “The Sanskrit language,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:38.02,0:00:40.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,whatever be its antiquity,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:40.04,0:00:41.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is of wonderful structure.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:41.45,0:00:42.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,More perfect than the Greek,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.54,0:00:44.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,more copious than the Latin,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.07,0:00:46.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and more exquisitely refine than either,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:46.75,0:00:50.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,yet bearing to both of\Nthem a stronger affinity
Dialogue: 0,0:00:50.37,0:00:51.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,both in the roots of the verbs
Dialogue: 0,0:00:51.85,0:00:52.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and in the forms of grammar,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.78,0:00:56.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than could not possibly have\Nbeen produced by accident...”
Dialogue: 0,0:00:56.46,0:00:57.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let me underline that.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.83,0:01:00.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,“…than could not possibly have\Nbeen produced by accident.”
Dialogue: 0,0:01:00.63,0:01:02.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So he says there’s a lot of commonality
Dialogue: 0,0:01:02.42,0:01:04.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,between the Sanskrit and Latin and Greek,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:04.52,0:01:06.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it’s a strong affinity,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.25,0:01:07.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a strong connectedness
Dialogue: 0,0:01:07.24,0:01:09.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that could not have produced by accident.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.52,0:01:10.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So strong indeed,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:10.45,0:01:13.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that no philologer could examine all three
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.38,0:01:15.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,without believing them to have sprung
Dialogue: 0,0:01:15.48,0:01:17.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from some common source."
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.50,0:01:18.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let me underline that.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:18.87,0:01:20.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,“Without believing them to have sprung
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.65,0:01:22.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from some common source which,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:22.62,0:01:24.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,perhaps no longer exists;
Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.36,0:01:27.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there is a similar reason\Nthough not quit so forcible
Dialogue: 0,0:01:27.95,0:01:31.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for supposing that both\Nthe Gothic and the Celtic,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.28,0:01:33.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,though blended with a very different idiom
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.65,0:01:35.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had the same origin with the Sanskrit;
Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.88,0:01:39.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the old Persian might be\Nadded to the same family.”
Dialogue: 0,0:01:39.37,0:01:41.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so when they started\Nto study the Vedas
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.77,0:01:42.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and look at the Sanskrit,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:42.61,0:01:43.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they started to realize
Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.65,0:01:46.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,well maybe all of these\Nlanguages are connected.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.16,0:01:48.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And now modern day philologists
Dialogue: 0,0:01:48.38,0:01:51.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,believe this very strongly\Nthe more they have studied it.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.78,0:01:54.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Based on the connections and the grammar
Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.04,0:01:56.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and even the vocabulary and\Nthe word structure themselves,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.81,0:02:00.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they now theorize that a parent language
Dialogue: 0,0:02:00.33,0:02:02.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of Sanskrit, Latin,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.63,0:02:04.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Germanic languages
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.80,0:02:06.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Celtic languages
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.16,0:02:08.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,recall a language today\Ncalled Proto-Indo–European,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:08.92,0:02:10.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is a lost language.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.85,0:02:14.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But we think that Sanskrit\Nis one of the oldest…
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.24,0:02:17.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Is one of the oldest\Nevidences that we have
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.03,0:02:20.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of that Proto-Indo-European Language.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.34,0:02:24.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Sanskrit as of course the parent language
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.04,0:02:25.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,has evolved in different parts of Indian
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.91,0:02:29.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to languages like Hindi,\NBengali, and Punjabi.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.16,0:02:32.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Latin, which is also a dead language now,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.29,0:02:34.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,has evolved into languages like
Dialogue: 0,0:02:34.52,0:02:36.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Spanish, Italian, and French.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.80,0:02:38.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And English
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.09,0:02:40.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is considered a Germanic\Nlanguage structurally,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.95,0:02:44.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but has significant influence\Nfrom Latin and French,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.09,0:02:49.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they all come from that same\NProto-Indo-European root.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.00,0:02:51.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And just to get an appreciation
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.09,0:02:53.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for why these philologist believe this,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.50,0:02:55.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this is something when I first saw it,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.45,0:02:57.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,really blew my mind a little bit.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.78,0:03:00.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’ll show you some connections\Nbetween Sanskrit words,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:00.78,0:03:01.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and those of you who might be
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.89,0:03:04.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Hindi, Bengali or Punjabi speakers,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:04.01,0:03:06.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or any of these North\NIndian languages in India,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.32,0:03:08.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,will see the connection to Sanskrit.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.17,0:03:09.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But what’s amazing is
Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.46,0:03:12.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,how these words are connected to Latin
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.48,0:03:15.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and many of the languages\Nderived from Latin.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.08,0:03:16.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Some of your Persian speakers
Dialogue: 0,0:03:16.29,0:03:17.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,might recognize some,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.76,0:03:19.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,some commonalities
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.15,0:03:20.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and, most importantly,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.38,0:03:21.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the language that we\Nare speaking right now,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.52,0:03:23.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,how to relate it to English.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.51,0:03:27.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And here is just a sample\Nof some Sanskrit words
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.44,0:03:29.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that have an eerie resemblance
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.52,0:03:32.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to both English and in\Nsome cases Latin words.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.24,0:03:33.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Or many cases Latin words.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:33.43,0:03:35.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’ve just given Latin in a few of them.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:35.33,0:03:37.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the Sanskrit matr,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.89,0:03:39.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,well in English we have mother
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.67,0:03:41.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and in Latin we have mater.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:41.32,0:03:43.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And we also from Latin\Nin English via Latin,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.89,0:03:46.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we have words like maternity and maternal
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.54,0:03:49.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all referring to the\Nsame idea of motherhood.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:49.55,0:03:51.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And this general trend,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.07,0:03:53.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this t sound, matr or mater
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.71,0:03:56.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,becoming of more of a tha sound in English
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.32,0:03:57.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Germanic languages
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.28,0:03:59.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is a trend you’ll see over and over again.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:59.34,0:04:01.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In Sanskrit you have pithr,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.64,0:04:04.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in Latin you have pater,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:04.31,0:04:06.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and by way of Latin in modern English
Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.78,0:04:09.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we have words like paternity and paternal.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.75,0:04:11.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But going through the Germanic languages
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.95,0:04:14.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you have once again that tha sound
Dialogue: 0,0:04:14.31,0:04:16.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,becoming more of a tha sound.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:16.06,0:04:18.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And you also see this\Npattern as you go from
Dialogue: 0,0:04:18.75,0:04:20.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this Proto-Indo-European,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:20.57,0:04:21.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this theoretical language,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.40,0:04:24.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and especially if you think\Nabout relative to Sanskrit,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.60,0:04:26.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that you have the sound going from
Dialogue: 0,0:04:26.82,0:04:29.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a pa to a fa as you go to\Nthe Germanic languages.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.73,0:04:33.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So pithr becomes, you\Ncould say it father.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.41,0:04:34.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And other words.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:34.38,0:04:37.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Na in Sanskrit…and those of you who speak

Dialogue: 0,0:04:40.66,0:04:42.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and in English it is no.
