Re: euskara There is a link indeed ,a link between genetics and linguistics. the peoples moved , settled , were scattered and left traces of their passage( isoglosses, distribution). Routes can be defined more or less in both fields and all this can constitute clusters of convergent factors. General theories have come to the sad conclusion that there are no connections and no hope in finding
M.MORVAN and his team within the CNRS in France are debunking this fatalistic view and brushed away -by means of serious comparative tenets -the most extravagant and unfounded theories which have been unfavourable to the study of Euskara.
Unfortunately, those particularly sophisticated works aren't widely known and translated yet. However, this team has set up new premises and new tracks. There is some evidence of connections , there are hints too. Now this work has to be completed.
I also underline the fact that most of those who have tried to make a study of Euskara were not acquainted with Euskara its structures and history and so on. How can one make a serious survey without that ?
Anyway, I grant that I appreciate your showing interest in this language, and that I should have thanked you before all! |
