"The ancient Indian language Sanskrit is close to Ukrainian. Also, geographical names of western and southern countries and peoples, such as Galatea, Galileans, France (Gallia), Galicia in Spain or Portugal (Porto Galia)... β‘οΈ pic.twitter.com/aqSMUd0yuX
Once an Ukrainian asked me some questions on Yoga, I said I personally do weights in gym and not well versed with yoga. She replied, "we should do yoga, after all we are Aryans." π
Unrelated but I was at a tiny pilgrim town sort of recently, high up in the Himalayas. So I'm walking the market in the afternoon and this massive procession of ~100 mayoskins dressed like us passes by singing hymns and stuff. Their hymns don't really go with the goddess the place is dedicated to but w/e. Then I go to the health center the next morning and there's a harried doctor trying to talk with this four-five middle aged Russian(I think might be some nearby language) none of whom speak English. I wonder how they fell down the pipeline to the point they're dancing barefeet through streets in some tiny pilgrim town in India without speaking any English.
