  • @KingdomOfThebes Egypt is a big nation thats next to the Semitid homeland so its only natural it will have its influence.

    J1c3d (L147) Semitids genetic goal is domestication, they will use any idea or concept to make that happen.

  • @xracertel2030

    Semitids were an Elite minority is Iberia, later an oppressed minority. Many left for North Africa as

    Muslims/Jews or to the New World as Catholic

    Make sure your whole family is proud of their Semitid identity so they can take their share of future Anti_Semitism ;)

  • Semitic It is the holy language

  • what is that region in the middle of iran that speaks arabic?

  • @ahmed337799

    Khorasan & some villages in Semnan that are part of greater Khorasan anyways Those are mainly the descendants of the Garrison of Khorasan

  • thank u 4 interesting information

  • @lenin again

    Ethiopia is a nation ruled by a Semitic speaking minority that managed to exceed its genetic size ...10% of Ethiopia are J1c3d (L147) Semitids

    That doesn't give the Semitid minority the right to degrade the native Cushitic majority, that represents the true identity of Ethiopia despite Amhara Semitic being the official language

  • @lennin01

    couple of points to consider

    The Oldest Semitic script is is found in Phoenicia circa 1100 BCZ

    The Semitic Script found in Yemen is Sabaean derived from the Phoenician script dating to the 700s BC

    The Semitic Script found in Ethiopia is derived from the Sabaean script dating 600s BC Speaking the Semitic language predates adopting the scripts, Akkadian was written in Mesopotamia before their was any Semitic presence in Ethiopia

    Cushitic speaking people were the natives 

  • Les Arabes sont les maîtres du peuple

    Les Arabes sont les plus belles races humaines

    Je veux dire les indigènes arabes

    Qui a construit les civilisations

    Qui a construit une civilisation qui a gouverné l'Andalousie omeyyade: l'Espagne et le Portugal

    Je veux dire la civilisation abbasside de subordonner l'ensemble du monde antique

    Les peuples ont tous été les différentes religions et Aracgaha vivre heureux sous la domination arabe

  • Very interesting video.

  • Thumbs up if you speak a Semitic language!

  • @HistoryCentral - I thank u for this interesting info. I have few questions for u: a.What's your ethnicity? b.What's the genitic structure of EACH of the following Iraqi groups: Assyrians, Syriacs, Chaldeans, Armenians, Mandaens, Arab Sunnis, Arab Shiite. Furthermore, is there a book or a website that I can check these info u r mentioning? Many thanks -:).

  • @Babillonia

    I am J1c3d (L147) Semitid Arabid, individuals in the groups you mentioned vary on personal level, they could be:

    J (M304) Arabids, E1b1b1 (M35) Meditids, R1 (M173) Eurasids or belong to any other racial type, anybody can assimilate to an ethnos or simply convert to religion it has little influence on your racial type.

    So if you are an Assyrian for example, you can be a nice Assyrian, ignorant Assyiran or artistic Assyrian, because of your own Y-DNA that defines you as an individual

  • @HistoryCentral Actually Greeks and Romans were white.Modern Greeks and modern Italians are descendants of the ancient populations that were there.Italians remain Samnites and Greeks in the south,Latins,Etruscans and Oscans in the center and Celto-Germanic in the north.Same goes for the Greeks,who are in the same way as ancient greeks appeared.

  • @valeagathon

    First thing skin color is not a true racial identity compared to Y-DNA thats 100% accurate & shows the true ancestral fathers. However, since we are talking skin

    one must remember that more Italians today are lighter skinned than the Roman era skin, Roman Italy civilized Italy was South & Central Italy, not the Celtic dominated northern Regions that was considered Barbarian to the civilized Romans & Greeks of Central-Southern Italy

    Not to forget the Post-Roman Germanic tribes

  • @HistoryCentral Ok,maybe you're right.Anyway,if we(south italians)got lighter skin is probably because of Norman influences.

  • @valeagathon

    South Italian Greek town revolted, which caused the first settlement of Northern Italid people, which included Gauls, then Goths & Lombard entered Central Italy & parts of the South. The Normans although credited for a big % of Northern features were really an Elite group of warriors that were by far less than the previous invaders & definitely much less than the Natives.

    True Romance movie quote is very Misleading (When they claim the original Sicilians were Blond!)

  • @HistoryCentral The North Italians,like you like to call them,effectively invaded my home,but it was only the Lombards,and their contribution to us was really reduced.Same goes for the Normans,who were the masters in practice of the south italians,but didn't accepted to merge with them.As of now,South Italians are descendants of Oscans(that were in the interior of the southern mainland)and Greeks(who were on the coasts).Nothing more.We look exactly like we looked 2000 years ago.

  • @valeagathon

    I think their skin complexion got lighter for many reasons mainly technology that defied climate!

    - General Southern Attitude that favosr lighter skinned females for reproduction, In Italian cities males prefer East European migrant women because of the economic/social advantage in addition to the phenotypic incentives

    The trend is also found in African Americans, South Americans, Middle Easterners possibly due to the residual 20th century glorification of the Nordic Phenotype

  • Akkadian was the first Semitic language in the world.

  • @Kra7as

    Yes, The First recorded written Semitic language.

  • Where and when did the first j haplogroup man live?

  • Possibly in the triborder region of (Iraq-Syria-Turkey) 30,000years ago

  • What y haplogroup were the Sumerians

  • Most of the ancient Sumerians were more than likely related to the J2-M172 population concentrating in Southern Mesopotamian Iraq today

  • Pure Berbers isolated in Atlas showed the lowest % of J1 (3~7%) & highest E1b1b1 (~80%)

    The Berberized Kabyles15% is naturally the result of being exposed to Phoenicians (who gave them their name Takabayle), Jews & finally the first wave of Muslims many of who became Berberized & diffrentiated from the Banu Hilal Nomadic wave.

    The video focuses on the spread of Semitic witha time farme exclusively associated with J1e1c-L147 an absolute Semitid gene, that has little to do with Neolithic

  • However , Siwi people are Beber but show a lowest rate of E1b1b1.

    Otherwise , "Kvayl" comes from "Kbayl" which means "tribes" in Semitic.

    Hence I wanted to know :

    If the J1 in Northern Africa is not related to the Neholitic migration , why does the rate is so high (35 to 40%) ? I think that the Berbers did have a rate of J before any invasion , bu that the J % become more and more important by the Semitization of the North Africa regions (Tunisia , Lybia and Algeria especially).

  • Siwi people are psuedo Berbers! Why would I search for the origins of Berbers in an Oasis in Egypt that been raided by various people!

    The fatherland of the M81 Berberids is the Atlas highlands, just like the fatherland of the L147 Semitids is Yemen

    The higher J1 % in Tunisian-Algerian Arabs & the 5X lower J1 % in Atlas Berbers is evident that J1-M267 is predominantly Semitic

    The fraction of J1 found in Atlas Berbers is the accumilation of Pre-Islamic & Post Islamic Semitic gene flow

  • @HistoryCentral yes that is why the morrocans are dark skinned ,they are mainly africans ,it is seldom that u can see a light skinned people in morroco // it is in Algeria that you can find a lots tribes from Benu Hashem ,Benu Temeem ,Benu Sulaym,,,,,,, God bless Algeria the protectors of islam in this region ,

  • What's the name of the song?

  • the language of the Arameans are beautiful.

    Aramaic is a Semitic language and is the most beautiful language of the world.

    Long live the Aramean Nation and the Aramaic language

  • Aramiac influenced both modern Hebrew & Arabic, especially Quranic Arabic

    Aramiac also had influence on Pre-Islamic Persian, many Semitic elements in modern Persian are Aramiac besides the obvious Arabic

  • @HistoryCentral arabic still exist in europe in the form of maltese

  • ASHURIC INNFLUENCE ARAMIC

  • aramiac is the twin sister of arabic

  • From historical events and this video, it shows how in no time a language can spread if it is done via poorer people and less tied to each other, less organized. Example, Latin America- Spanish spread very easily. Look at English- divide and conquer and then soon you'll be speaking English.Why didn't any of the numerous Caucasian (in the Caucasus) languages spread? I wonder if the linguists have made any progress on this subject?

  • I disagree because a languages is a dialect with a sword, spread by an ethnic minority, later spread to various subdued population.

    The Englishmen exported English, Castillans spread Castillan during their imperial height

    Obviously only some of the people who speak the dominant langauges are related to the elites who proginated the langauge

    Caucas & Subsaharan languages remained exclusive because they were isolated from invaders & too weak to impose their tongue on others

  • Kurds & Persians are both Iranian speaking populations

  • Oh Sorry,

    It explained it :)

  • Semitic language to Persia?

    how come we still speak Persian?

    Well with some Arabic words

  • Hm ... I think it's almost a correct map :) well done.

  • Wow!  Great Demonstration! Thank you!

    Semitic stuff.... yet, surprised seeing no mentioning/place of the today's so called self-proclaimed only semitics, the sole proprietor of semitism.

    History tells the truth, hmmmmm........

  • name of the song please!!!

  • Thanks HistoryCentral. I Never beleive in Persons Individs and or DNA. I beleive in The Nations!. the LAnguage of the Nation the Culture of the Nation etc. Kurdish language is far away from Arabian,Armenian,Turkish,assyr­ian It is related to Indian Urdu Persian Tajik etc and of course other indo-europian language. Kurdish Costumes are like Iranian and East Europian(macedonian,Greek,Anat­olian etc). and the traditions are Iranic of course. So that is important. for me not the Kurds or DNA.

  • I think culture is important but genes are much stronger, you can kidnap a Turkish child and raise him as a Kurd & vice versa. However, you will never be able to change his DNA.

    A Veyr haunting fact...Genetics just started & so far most people who get their tests changed their views of self awareness & identity. Every male wants to honor his fathers & male ancestors more than anything else...

  • Culture & Customes can be imitated as you see many Semitic speaking North Syrians who say they are Arab dance & look like Kurds from the same area & Arabic culture influence creeps into many Kurds in urban zones such as Irbil...usually a Kurd babbling some Semitic words will not know it just like a Semite dancing a Kurdish song will not know it

  • Goddddddddd for God's Sake pleasssse Don't be a Nazi. R is EuroAsian and more Europian, and why you mix Arian with DNA? For god's Sake. some 3000_4000 Years Ago. the name Arian come! It means All Nations who speak Indo-Iranian languages From Kurdistan to India/Hindistan. They all were related and relatives and they were called Arian. this R=indo-europian. Plz dont make Arian a race or genetic. it has Nonething to do with it. Anyway Kurds have 35% Middle Eastern genes.

  • Aryanids are R1a, they extend clearly from India to Kurdistan where R1a has a relatively higher frequency. Peaking in Afghanistan/Tajikstan

  • Persians even have Blacks within themselves I know afew Persians they look like north African Arabs. their lips are so dark and more black and their bodies are short too. While Northern Persians were mixed with *Caucasians who got Iranized. Anyway J1 within Kurds= 7%=nonething it comes from Islam when Arabs Raped our Daughtters and the Kurdish women. and the Mesopotamian Genes come from the Hurrians and Assyrians maybe.

  • For your information Kurdish J2 chromosome is 28% the Rest are Europian R1 R2 and the Kurdish mtDNA is completly Europian. Anyway Kurds are Iranic and Kurdish is indo-europian it means majority=outsiders of middle east.

  • Kurdish DNA

    R1 - M173 Eurasid genes ~ 40%

    ---30% R1a Aryanid

    ---10% R1b West-Eurasid

    J - M304 Arabid genes ~ 35%

    ---28% J2 -Native Mesopotamian-

    ---7% J1 -Proto Semites & Semites-

    E1b1b1 - M35 Meditid ~ 10%

    NOP (xR1) - Asianid ~ 10%

    The Kurdish language and identity is Iranian

  • im aN ethnic spaniard, but i live in san diego . what do u think about my DNA pool my ancestors are from south SPAIN AND IM NOT BLOND AND BLUE EYED , I SEEM MORE LIKE A GREEK A TURK OR A KURD.......

  • You have to take a DNA test, most Spaniard look Med, but in reality their DNA is similar to the rest of West European. However, you need to take a DNA test to find out for sure!

  • within the Video, you showed that Semites are Thieves,evil,gypsies.. and every bad word. Thanks for your video. North Syria and North Iraq are Kurdistan Not Semitic and not Arabic but Kurdish(an indo-iranian language) I hope one day people leave your religion too. Im from there and I CAN Not Speak Arabic. and i wish i never be able to do that.

  • Kurds today are an admixture of many people, many are actually Arabids who were Aryanized in various periods through history mainly after the fall of Assyria, but also in the Post Abbasid age assimilating isolated Arabians entrapped in regions disconnected from the Levant

  • Arabic was rejected in Persia for a reason. Indo-Europeans dislike Semitic language/culture & it will be very unethical/unholy to annoy non-Semitic people with a language they dislike...

    Plus Indo Europeans (Ajam) Persians, Indians or Europeans pronounce Arabic in a horrible way anyways. I prefer if Arabic becomes exclusive to Semites only or scholars who just want to speak Arabic not people forced to speak a language they dislike! In the same manner African AMericans speak English...

  • You are wrong, the Persian language contains 40% of Arabic words, and the current persian are mix of people, the older persian were not muslims and who converted to Islam were sunni (a Very intolerant sunni)

  • Maltese contains a big amount of Italian words but its still Arabic, that just means there was strong influence but the language remained unchanged

    The majority of modern Persian words are Semitic in origin (Mainly Arabic, but also older Aramiac & Akkadian). However, many of those Persian & Persianized Semitic words made their way to Aramiac & Arabic during periods of Persian cultural/political influence in the Arabic speaking regions so it happens both ways

  • I assure you that the Persians are finished, see their DNA tests

  • People like to identify with the greatest part of them so most Persians feel pride identifying with the Sassanids & to some extent earlier Iranian cultures over any other culture. The Iranian regional marker R1a1 is still the primary lineage amongst Ethnic Persians about 30% while J lineages can have a similar percentage thats misleading because they come from various subclades (J1b, J1e, J2a*, J2a4b, J2a4h, J2b) while R1a1 comes from a tighter Iranid cluster making the absolute Iranid lineage

  • R1a1 encompasses Iranians in one big Neolithic group (Persians, Medes, Mittani & other "Aryan" groups that spread from the Bay of Bengal to Taurus)

  • i am not agree with you because many turkic people and many japanese speak arab perfectely

    it is amazing

  • Japanese are genetically distinguished by the high % of DE (Y-DNA), thats why they stand out from the rest of the NOP (Y-DNA) speakers. Those DE (Y-DNA) are closer to Berber & Somali people than to the Chinese

  • the spanish meal paella is an arab word

    so thank you arabe jajajajajajaj

  • spanish have so many arab words

    english have arab words too

    like coffee ,sugar ,cave,camel ,stable,algebra

    arsinal ,admiral,zero,alcohol,cotton "alchemy", "alkali", "zenith "nadir ,magazine etc,,,,,

  • south part of Turkiye still speak Arabic&Turkish. Not only Hatay region to east Mardin Urfa cities (Sunnee Arabs living with Turkmans) and to west of south Anatolia Mersin Adana citiec (alawe arabs living with Turkmans like Lazkiyah)

  • what a great video.also arabic was sopken in jawa indoennsia ,malasyia singapor .

  • Missed that one, mostly Hadrami Yemenites :)

  • According to this afghanistan was once an arabic speaking country for hundreds of years and then turned back to farsi. This doesnt seem accurate. People in afghanistan read quran in arabic but spoke farsi. If I am wrong please send me the reference.

  • Arabic was still spoken amongs Bedouins in Eastern Afghanistan up until the 19th century, they eventually moved to Khorasan & Turkmenistan

  • do u have the reference for this.

  • Arabic as a minority language By Jonathan Owens - ISBN 3110165783

    Some Central Asian Arabic speakers still exist till this day (not be confused with the recent Mujahideen that came into the region in the 1980s)

  • MP3 link to the song please....

  • Why does there have to be evil music in the background?

  • When a movie map is gradually covered by some single color, viewers often infer something evil is happening.

  • who cares its cool.

    although I wish he'd post what the hell the name of it was....

  • @PloughTheSky in spain arabic was spoken till 19th century but it has been covered up officially arabic that was the official language of al-andalus ceased to be spoken in 1500, that is just 6 years after the conquest of southern spain from arabs. Do you think it's possible imagine an army occupied your land even committing ethnic rape and torture like french did in al-andalus do you think that after six years you would stop speaking your language to adopt the language of these occupiers?

  • spanish still have so many arabic words

    for example r u hungry :) ? paelle

    its arabic meal and word

    wikipedia jejjejej new info

  • J1 also seems to be found with high frequency in the northern parts of Sudan (Arabs 45%, Nubians 41%, Copts 39%, Beja 36%), and present with lower frequency in the region of Darfur (Masalit 6%, Fur 6%).Haplogroup J1 may be found in as many as 20% of Egyptian males with the frequency of this haplogroup tending to be comparatively high in the south of the country.

    You are right

  • Darfur people are E-V32 Somalids in general they cluster with the Somalis, Oromos & are closer to E-M81 Berberids than to J-M304 Arabids

    J1 in Sudan is found in the Arabic speaking tribes, many with pure paternal lineages from the Peninsula & native Sudani maternal lineages.

  • "By 1900 Arabic ceased to exist in Europe..."

    Wait, you mean Arabic survived in Europe until ~1900??

  • No the last evidence of it spoken in Europe is 17th century spoken in Valencia.

    I said 1900, so it doesn't get confused with the later Arabic spkoen in Europe today. AT 1900 it was safe to assume that Arabic was not spoken at all in Europe!

  • allegedly, one of the jobs of the Jewish version of the Messiah is to unite the semites again.

    after he's killed a whole lot of them first; I never did understand the prophecy.

  • Don't give the worng people the wrong ideas lol

  • Pillsbury, that is not true. There is no such version.

  • I am Jewish, however, I ever encounter a Jewish criminal, I'm feeding the fucker to the authorities; I'm not protecting someone JUST BECAUSE he's Jewish the way the ashkenazi have a nasty habit of doing. Feeding sociopaths from among our ranks to the authorities is how we Jews of Iraq stayed alive for 1,300 years of Islamic rule.

  • I think most ethnic groups coverup for their own to a certain extent

  • I love the menacing Arab music.

    lol.

  • brother here please no one insult our turks brothers..we love them and they love us.

    this gay EuroTurkTrakya is not repesenting the truks ..and he is not turk even ..he is Euro and jewish slave.

    so please dont mix between him and our turkish brothers.

  • dont the turks come from Mongolia or central asia to begin with? what are they doing in anatolia?

  • shut up you Barbarian Turk

    you betrayed Islam and now want to be European

    what a disgrace ;)

  • what tha fuck!? turks never betrayed islam you idiot...the westerners and the arabs betrayed the turks and islam...they killed the turkish sultan (also the highest hoca) and that came to the end of the ottoman empire...you got that? ottoman empire was ISLAMIC Soldier

  • you've changed your script from the Arabic alphabet "Semitic" to the Latin alphabet witch is derived from the Greek alphabet and the Greek alphabet was derived from the Phoenician alphabet (Semitic)

    WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND AND BITES YOU IN THE ASS

  • hashah can ur poor browing langauge which is 65% arabic sematic words do the same? i dont think so turks took the middle eastrean face from arabs and greeks ottomans left no books as greek and arabs and this semtic langauges were found when no mongolian was in earth all the prophets are semtics heheeh sematics are the chosen by god not by refugees mongols used semtic power to became impire,,,, also u r not erupean as greeks hehehe go to china.have self -esteem by ur rooots,,,
  • my race started roughly at Kiev capital of ukraine or near that area. it is debatable some say in novgorod in russia, i dont belive that though i believe in the Kiev area. the mongol invasion destoryed everything so we can not make any solid evideince. also i hope u know who the slavs right?

  • Yes I know the Slavs, they have their own R1a DNA, not sure whats the slavic Modal of R1a.  55% of Ukranians & Poles are R1a

  • whats R1a?

    also what about the russians and the balkan slavs (southern slavs) and others such czechoslovakia?

  • All Slavs have big % of R1a its extends all through Eurasia from Eastern Europe to Northern India

    In a bigger since R1a is the Aryan gene

  • thats the thing that every one says that slavs have persian blood? no man thats not true only some of em have it. im sick of ppl saying that. Americans are the ones who claim this!

  • I didn't mention the modern Persians though. I meant Aryan as in the original Aryans only 35% of the Persians in East Iran are R1a Aryanids. This was long ago & very sperated geographically Slavs mixed with new people & North Indians-Afghan-Iranians mixed with new people

  • still i know i met afghans and persians who said their part of the aryan race they say that iran, afghanistan and pakistan should be one country because there are a common race but slavs dont have that blood and if they do very little of it remains. this is what people say that slavs have persian blood in other words aryan.

    No offence i know u did not metion persian but still its in other words. Anyways Peace

  • Persians are not the best example of Aryans because they reprpesent the civilized Aryans (the ones that mixed with Elamites), their DNA is mixed. Afghans & East Iranians are more Aryan.

    They share the same Paternal lineage with Slavs, the diff is that SLavs have European mtDNA (maternal) while Afghans-Pakistanis-East Persians have local mtDNA (mixed Indian-Central Asian-Near Eastern)

  • slavs are not a race, they are just people who were Inslaved and were used as slaves by the romans. they were bought and sold in ancient times by the roman empire thats where they get their name from Slavs= slaves. Slavs are just aryans who migrated from over the black sea and into european continenet. They were first used as warriors by roman and greek armies but later they were inslaved. that was one of the earliest slave trade.

  • Still whatever they were, we can't help but notice the higher % of R1a amongst Slavic populations when compared to Western Europeans

  • thats because from the early times Hannibal and his Invasion into western european territories. And also the Berber and african Migrations to western europe in recent times. and many other factors such as the 800 year rule of Muslim rule in Iberian Peninsula and Southern France. Eastern europeans who are mostly slavic didnt go through all of that.

  • Western Europe dominant gene is R1b & it has nothing to do with North Africans.

    R1b is over 70% in Atlantic Europe & less than 10% in most North Africans

  • damn im no arab but im slavic and we also have great expansions both with our race and slavonic language. Even countries such as Kazakhstan have the alphabet of orthodox slavs. However good work u arabs u made ur selfs big to the world however the world does not see it same with the slavs

  • this song was on 5th element

  • southern sudan is not arab speaking nor islamic so why did you write the sudanese expanded arab to the equator? It's not true

  • Juba Arabic...language has nothing to do with religion

    I just went to the Southern Sudanese website & I undersatnd 99% of it.

    Southern Sudanese are Dinka, Neur & similar people that are native to Southern Sudan.

  • do you mean yusef ?

    anyways it's a hebrew name

    in english it's joeseph

  • Thanks, that explains a lot

  • I love your videos :)) , keep up the good work.

  • thanx for the video. I was always interested in arabic culture and I wish to learn the language one day. )

  • Well known Semites

  • I'm Assyrian!

    :]

  • Actually Assyrians were Hamites. The Cushites are found in the valleys of the Euphrates and Tigris, in Arabia, and also in Africa. Mesram is Egypt. Phuth, less known, seems to have occupied regions west of Egypt, particularly Libya. Chanaan comprised the numerous tribes whose country was subsequently occupied by Israel. The Hamites were, consequently, spread over an immense extent of territory. They founded the great empires of antiquity, Assyria, Babylonia, Egypt, Phoenicia.

  • Not sure who the Hamites are, but Semitism is exclusive to the Arabian plate (Arabian Peninsula & Fertlie Crescent). It spread to Africa via early Semites & later in Islam.

  • Music is from The Fifth Element isn't it?

  • Yes Janfu :)

  • That was really informative!

    Thank you.

  • what about the Khazar Jews???

    who are not even Jewish by blood line....

    anywho...kool video...

    Abraham, Hagar, and Sarah

    does this make Arabs and Jews somewhat related to some extent??? ^_^

  • The original Jews were from the same racial stock as Arabs & obviously spoke a Semitic language.

    You can become a Jew without being a Semite...(by maternal lineage or conversion)...Just like you can be a muslim without being a Semite.

    Most Jews today are cultural Semites. The priestly Cohanim jews share the same DNA with Bedouins/Yemenites & represent the nucleus of the Jews as a religious ethnic group

  • Comment removed

  • I think they were African closely related to Ethiopians & Berbers

    The Semitic influence started from the Hyksos invasion & before that a minor agricultural migration from Neolithic Mesopotamia.

  • Comment removed

  • By Nature Arabic is a very progressive language, sense I am a Semitic speaker it will be unfair for me to classify it as the most progressive language on earth.

    Arabic main strength is its flexibility + Semitic rich background. Thousands of Aramaic words were simply incorporated into Modern Arabic. Hebrew is Semitic, if written in cursive most Arabic speakers will understand it.

    Other languages have their own structure, there is a reason why Lawyers, Prophets are usually Semitic speakers.

  • "You calling a Tigrinya Eritrean a Tigray is the equivalent of someone calling an Arab a Persian."

    Many Persians could be very close to some Arabs genetically. However, Arabic is Semitic & Persian is Indo European (regardless of vocab influx)

    Tigray & Tigrinya are both Southwest Semitic & you live across from each other & I will not be called crazy if I said both you are in teh same genepool. These divisions are colonial left overs, you are closer to each other than to Sudanaese/Somalians!

  • Why did you semi-quote me but won't allow my quotes to be posted? Man, i thought you were fair. What a jackass you've become

  • I don't want to offend people, other peoples have feelings too right?

  • I LOVE ARABS AND ARABIC...

  • umm Okay?

  • Hey HC I saw an old Sicilian document from Palermo it was written in Siculo Arabic. I was wondering if modern Arabic speakers can understand what it says? was Siculo an Arabic dialect or an independant Language branched of Arabic like Maltese?

  • Yes Siculo was simply an Arabic dialect an admixture of Bedouin & Tunisian. However, I stated in the video that Siculo Arabic was spoken in Sardinia and Corsica, but now I done more research and I came to realization Siculo Arabic was only Spoken in Sicily.

    Sardinia & Corsica breifly fell under military control & later raids. However, they were never occupied or settled by Siculo Arabic speakers.

    Sardinians and Corsican spoke their own local Vulgar Latin dialect.

  • what about monotheistic sayeds who don't speak arabic anymore. are they semitics

  • A True Sayid-Shareef-Noble Semite will preserve and pride his language. The Elite Iranians know some Arabic, but I know some who don't so those I just have to doubt since they have no cultural claim to their identity. forexample some Israelis stopped using their IndoEuropean language in favor of the Semitic language because they want to claim a Semitic identity.

  • hi, the vid was very interesting!

    also, what was the music?

  • تمام

    good

  • Thanks for the Vd, very educational,As far as I know Swahili in eastern africa has high % of Arabic in it. as well as the Maltese language in Malta.

  • Swahili has alot of Arabic vocabulary just like Turkish and Persian, but they are still Non Arabian languages because of Grammer.

    Maltese ofcourse is an Arabian language, Malta is just too tiny to show up on the map lol

  • "For example East Arabian reached Mesopotamia as East Arabian then evolved into many dialects the dialect of Akkad became the official language thus the Language that will spread to Assyria and becoem the Assyrian Akkadian for 1200years. West Arabian reached teh levant as Amorite and became Aramiac in the highlands & Cananite in the lowlands."

    So Aramiac is basically an older form of Arabic?

  • Classical Arabic is the latest of all the Peninsular-Levantine Arabian languages.

    Its a composed language that was called "Arabic" by the people of Hejaz because they selected the most melodic words out of all the Arabian dialects spoken by the Bedouin semites (Arabs) & to a lesser degree words used by the settled Semites in the Sham & Yemen.

    Centuries earlier Aramiac replaced all the other Arabian dialects spoken by the semites in the Levant so it was the main settled language of the north.

  • hmmm, Classical Arabic as we know it is basically the dialect of Quraish which is a settled Mekkan tribe, not a Bedouin one...could u elaborate?

  • Meccan was called Lisan Al Arab, because Qurayshi people composed it from teh various dialect of the Bedouin pilgrims, they selcted the Alfath they liked & filter out Al-Alfath Al Shani3a making it a composed elite language & not a natural dialect that came from one group only.

    Thats why European linguists kept switching Arabic origin from Northwestern to Southwestern...etc

  • LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! at blackpower718, damnn how many pages did he write ?? LOL!

  • poli...

  • wallah you are genius! I watched 3 of your videos and loved them. They are educational and very interesting. Please Please post some more videos :)

  • Thanks, but I am not a genius though...sorry to disappoint you ;(

  • Geez is not a creole of Sabaean, it was Sabaean! The variation between the scripts of Sabaean and their nieghboring Maenean is by far farther than that between the Geez and Sabaean, also Geez appeared at the same time the Qahtani Sabaean campaigns reached Coastal & Lower Yemen. Geez is the oldest form of SouthArabian founded in Ethipoia the inland expansion came later.

    As of Djibouti and Somalia if the language is recognized as an official language then I will have to assume it is!

  • Languages evolve from archaic to modern, modern can be a creole, language or mere dialect, politics and nationalism also effect this.

    For example East Arabian reached Mesopotamia as East Arabian then evolved into many dialects the dialect of Akkad became the official language thus the Language that will spread to Assyria and becoem the Assyrian Akkadian for 1200years. West Arabian reached teh levant as Amorite and became Aramiac in the highlands & Cananite in the lowlands.

  • Arabian is not spoken/never spoken in east Africa

  • FYI Arabian is not Classical Arabic, its the name of the family of languages that spread out of Arabia as early as the 3rd millenia BC

    ::Arabian languages in East Africa::

    - Geez Tigriniya, Tigre

    - Classical Arabic

    ::South Arabian Creoles in East Africa::

    The inland Ethiopic creoles branched from a degenerated form of South Arabian that spread from whats today Eritrea & Tigray during the Aksumite expansion

    Amhari, Harari, Gafati, Argobi, Silti, Zayi, Mesqani, Inuri, Mesmesi

  • Ethiopic languages are not 'degenerated form of South Arabian' as you put it. Further, more in Djibouti and Somalia, no form of Arabic or Arabian as you like to put it is spoken.

  • None of the languages above (besides Classical Arabic) is even spoken in Somalia and Djibouti.

    Ethiopic Tigray and Tigriniya spoken in Eritrea and Tigray are the only two languages that can be considered South Arabian variants, because they are direct descendants of Geez (Sabaean).

    Ethiopic inland creoles have one common origin (Geez) they evolved into various dialects because of the Aksumite expansion, the garrison towns later were isolated after the fall of Aksum.

  • The pockets of isolation slowly absorbed non-South Arabian elements, just like Latin divereged into many dialects after they lost political power.

    Thats why the primitive structure of all Inland Ethipoic creoles is South Arabian, but the rich vocabulary and many grammer shifts are similar to that of their nieghboring tribes languages.

    A similar situation occured in Maltese Arabic & Juba Arabic, interestingly enough you will notice a quick initial degenration of the Classical Arabic grammer

  • Languages spoken in Somalia and Djibouti are cushitic family and in Eritrea ( Tigrinya and Tigre) languages are semetic family language and they very close to arabic.

  • Yes my freind I recognize Tigray and Tigriniya as pure Semitic languages branched directly from South Arabian, While Amharic is a later development not as pure as Tigray/Tigriniya.

    Djibouti-Somali use Arabic officially but are not native languages

  • historycentral, it's very insulting for a Tigrinya Eritrean to be called a "tigray". Tigray people live in Ethiopia & are considered different ethnic groups by the Tigrinya people of Eritrea.

    Tigre people speak Tigre & live in Eritrea - With the exception of Arabic, Tigre by far is the purest Semitic language in Africa. Some even say Tigre is older.

    Tigrinya people speak Tigrinya and live in Eritrea

    Tigray people speak Tigrinya (with a very different dialect than Eritrean Tigrinya people)

  • "Tigray people speak Tigrinya (with a very different dialect than Eritrean Tigrinya people)"

    which is common to closley related people!

    I know you are not exactly the same but amongst the Tigray, Tigrinya & Amhara are the 10% original ethnic Semites that live in that region. (I know more people speak Semitic today, I am just highlighting the proximity between people)

  • it is spoken in Eritrea most of Eritreans are arabian also as you know in Djibouti

  • Classical Arabic & Tigrinya are Arabian language both spoken in Eritrea, In Djibouti its an official language.

  • what with the hebrew language?

  • Hebrew was simply a Canaanite West Arabian dialect. It was dead as a literal language since the BC era.

    The Jews in EU spoke IndoEuro dialects that were non_Arabian, just like Non Semitic muslims speak Non Arabian language thats why I didnt include them in the video. Liturgical use in the mosques and Synagoges is irrelevant.

  • but today in israel People speak hebrew

  • well I think I know that! Modern hebrew was revived from its Middle Arabian dialect form and is spoken understood in israel. If you are wondering why thats not mentioned in the map is because the area was already Arabian speaking anyways.

  • Iran speaks Persia which is it's own language. I doubt that there is a huge difference between Persian and Arabic, probably it has been influenced by each other.

  • Persian can be divided into 3 stage languages

    Old Persian: few Akkadian-Elamite Arabian words, high % IndoEuropean words

    Middle Persian: Influx of Arameans during the Assyrian imperial period that witnessed big population movements and later Achamenid Adoption of Aramiac as the imperial language.

    Modern Persian: 10th century + this was a movement to revive Persian grammer structure, using a majority of Arabian words either recent (calssical Arabic or older Aramiac)

  • Change the title to the language of GOD!

  • سلام!

  • Thanks a lot for the video.. am not so much into history because of so much arguments and lots of names where it get my mind frozen to trace who is who.. but I would like to learn more if you could make more videos and if possible if could make it in arabic

  • les tribues arabes n'ont pas arabisé le north africain car leurs but était de dominer ces terres mais ils n'ont pas réussi

    les dynasties berbers les a forcer à obéir

    les règles instaurés après l'islam mais l'arabisation est venue progrssivement

    surtout avec le sophisme tassawof

    il y a au north afrique les berberophone et les arabophone

    et c'est très compliqué j'aime savoir tes source d'informations
