[A.J.Armitage]

Language is the poorest of all "indicators" of who when where and when. Think about it, how long does it take a European family which moved to America before it loses all touch with European language and cultural roots. 3 generations? 2 generations? And this with modern day transportation and communication.

That's because they're surrounded by another culture they adopt. They don't suddenly start speaking an Asian language. Languages have continuity, they come from somewhere.

That being said, there are numerous links between the Hebrew of that day and modern European languages.

Prove it.

Borrowings through the Old Testament don't count.

Prove it.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving "tookee" and "turkey". The Hebrew pronunciation for "big ole pheasant" was tookee, modern english is turkey. See a Strong's Concordance for more.

Go look it up yourself and stop being such a self-centered arrogant little twit. I have no intention of typing many pages of examples just so you won't have to do your homework before you shoot of your oversize mouth.
