Hungarian at the nine century were animal shepherd/warriors, even our oldest legends are diferent, only common thing I found is shamanism...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863523145594188921.post-49603414131547139592013-05-06T21:11:01.855-07:002013-05-06T21:11:01.855-07:00NiceNiceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863523145594188921.post-91094496950260378402013-04-15T14:00:32.903-07:002013-04-15T14:00:32.903-07:00On some level, I like the theory that Hungarians a...On some level, I like the theory that Hungarians are from Sirius.

They certainly have a predisposition for manufacturing theories about the Noble Origins of my folk just like all the proto-Nazi nutjobs have everywhere (of course, about their folk in turn : ). There are also raving lunatics who think that Hungarians came from Sirius (?) and this is proven by the fact that our DNA twists (?) seven times (?), which is just as many times as photons twist (?) on their way from Sirius to here (no, I am not making this up).<br /><br />As for the languages being related, I'd much rather defer that to people who are more knowledgeable and more interested than me. Since it does not have much practical use in my life, I tend not to dwell on it too much (there a numbers of similar words in Finnish and Hungarian, though, so the theory at least makes sense)<br /><br />The example sentences in the above paper were not that convincing to me, mainly because they say "well, this is how this sentence would look in Hungarian if only Hungarian was spoken in the Urals." Except that it's not. I am pretty sure I could twist, say, Somali (an agglutinative language) so that it has a similar structure. Furthermore, it may be that the list of suffixes at the beginning of page 3 is correct, but I could not really figure out which suffixes they actually are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863523145594188921.post-87864709002734270402013-04-01T16:41:27.730-07:002013-04-01T16:41:27.730-07:00I hope it's only the lack of proper informatio...I hope it's only the lack of proper information, and that this collective psychosis among Hungarians will end, when such information becomes available in the Internet:<br />http://www.elisanet.fi/alkupera/Hungarian.pdf<br />Jaakko Häkkinenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03088022045546791438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863523145594188921.post-86517965226141751002013-04-01T10:09:43.323-07:002013-04-01T10:09:43.323-07:002 days early?
