2:14 *Hes speaking the language of gods*
In many Indo European languages the word death looks the same. Examples are: Armenian - marh, Welsh - marwolaeth, Latin - mortem, Lithuanian - mirtis, Persian - marag, Russian - smert, Sanskrit - mart.
In Greek is death = Thanatos (Θάνατος)
So that explained why ancient Javanese from Indonesia have a word death "mertuhu" even though the languange is related to Proto Austronesian, basically Indo European language since the ancient time also influenced other family language
@@svenandersen ya but most indo Europeans now follow the culture of the middle easterners and have middle eastern names
No, Mortem is brilliant my ancestors were smarter than yours.
Polish - ''śmierć'' [almost like in Russian]
Imagine if the engineers only spoke in "valley girl".
This cracked me up haha
White Noise like whaaat?
“Like, why would I give you eternal lyyyyfee? Like for real? *giggles*”
Hebrew Aramaic influence. Mr. Scott must've used these considering the original script had references to Biblical events.
All good movies have a knack more including crucial historical events to enrich the mythology depicted on-screen.
One of my favourite movies.
What biblical events ?
I want a remake where the engineers only speak in a thick new zealand accent
Valleygirl is better.
@@maxkho00 No.
@@anonymousr1918 Yes. Like, why New Zealand? It's such a random accent and doesn't carry any connotations that would make ancient aliens speaking in it amusing. Valley girl, on the other hand...
@@maxkho00 what the fuck is a valley girl???
@@maxkho00 I am a New Zealander. I’d prefer an engineer who sounded like Sir Christopher Lee.

Language of the Aryans from Sinthastha culture, similar to Old Sanksrit as same group migrated to North West India, and composed Rig Veda
Lanaguage of arayan from sinthashta culture wad proto indo iranian and NOT proto indo European
The term Aryan (/ˈɛəriən/ Indo-Iranian *arya) is a term which was originally used as a self-designation by only and READ AGAIN "ONLY" Indo-Iranian peoples in ancient times. the use of Arya as an ethno-cultural self-designation is only and ONLY attested among Indo-Iranian peoples, and it is not known if PIE speakers had a term to designate themselves as a group. In Ancient India, the term ā́rya- was used by the Indo-Aryan speakers of the Vedic period as a religious label for themselves, as well as the name of the geographic region which was known as Āryāvarta, where the Indo-Aryan culture emerged. Similarly, ancient Iranian peoples used the term airya- as an ethnic label for themselves and they also used it in reference to their mythical homeland, Airyanem Vaejah, which is mentioned in the Avesta scriptures. All this confusion is caused by 19th century scholars, when they discovered the indo-european language family they find out that the figures in Rig Veda and avesta are calling themself arayans so they thought that this term must be applicable to whole indo European family this was followed by a theory by Friedrich Schlegel that connected the Indo-Iranian words arya/ā́rya with German Ehre (“honor”)and some older Germanic names, thus assuming that it was the original Indo-European autonym meaning "the honorable people".
It turns out they were wrong.
German word Ehre comes from Proto indo European *h₂oys-éh₂ from *h₂eys and thus CANNOT be cognate with Proto-Indo-Iranian *áryas.
Furthermore Indians and Iranians people form a super branch under indo European family which is called indo-iranian in morden times but they themself at 2500 bc referred to themselves as aryas.
A derivation from Proto-Indo-European cannot be obtained with certainty either. This is because
the ā/a in ārya- have a morphological value unique to Indo-Iranian languages. Indo-European ā, ē, ōmerge as Indo-Iranian ā (a similar merger also occurs for short vowels).the rules governing ablauts are poorly understood and it is not certain whether PIE had an a-vowel at all; in principle ārya- could simply reflect zero-grade n̥ryo-.the a priori assumption that ārya- is Indo-European is not assured.
A comparable word does not exist in any other Indo-European language (i.e. other than the Indo-Iranian ones).
(18th/19th-century assumptions of a relationship to Irish Éire, German Ehre, etc. have long since been dismissed.)
It is possible that the autonym was originally a name given to the Indo-Iranians by another (non-Indo-European) people.the relationship between various Sanskrit (near-)homonyms has not been established. In addition to the vriddhi-formed ā́rya- that corresponds to Old Iranian ariya/airiia etc., Sanskrit also has árya-, aryá-, aryà-, ā́rīḥa-, etc. Prior to the 1950s, these were all assumed to be variants of the same word (i.e. assumed to have a historical unity), but since 1957 (Laroche), this approach is no longer considered tenable. (The relationship of these terms with Sanskrit ari- "attached to, faithful, trustworthy; faithful, devoted, pious man, kinsman" is also not clear, but it has frequently been suspected as a derivational base.)
@@tsarvladimirputin409 ?? don't understand what's your point.
1. Lack of evidence is not evidence.
2. The language sounds closer to Old Sanskrit than PIE
3. Sounds like you were there to validate that there wasn't not a small sect of people in Sinthastha culture who referred themselves as Aryas and later migrated south.
@@tsarvladimirputin409 indo iranian were literally a linguistic offshoot of PIE you fucking mud
So awesome. Wish there was more!
This is an extremely ancient script known as “WingDings.”
Back from B. G. in the x86 times, yes.
3:15 "time to die" as a spanish speaker i heard something like "muerto" meaning like 'dead'. it sounds similar to french, italian, possibly latin and its offsprings. and latin is from PIE... makes sense
Also ‘maut’ in Arabic, Hindi, Urdu meaning death and ‘mrittu’, ‘moron’ in Bengali meaning the same.
Like 'Murder' in English.
Modern E. murder
sounds a lot like portuguese "agora, morremos"
And the English words Mortal, Mortality, Mortuary all of thos connect to the concept of death.
Μόρος, moros, meaning death, in ancient greek, found only in poetry.
Thank you.

I wanna learn this language sounds cool
big fan
I do! There are those who go to art musea =musums. I love different languages, their structures and pronunciations and vocabularies and literatures and histories.
Hmmmm I need to type that
I wonder if you will see this Sarah ? x
David is left-handed?
so serious
Why don't I see this scene?
it has been cut out of the movie. but I'm sure you'll find it on youtube, just search for "engineer speaks scene"
IT SOUNDS so like sanskrit

That's because Sanskrit developed out of this language
@@dj000000000002 nope. Indians invaded those lands. One ancient horse training manual found in Syria which referee that royalty used to speak sanskrit.
1:04 - did he say: "Thanos" xD
How do you write 2:14
I've found a great video where another fan fortunately makes it perfectly clear, here you go (: czcams.com/video/ZTOcA_y1R_U/video.html
Sounds like phoenician.
That's a Semitic [Afro-Asiatic] language rather than an Indo European language.
Has absolutely nothing to do with Phoenician, that is a Semitic language
@@meep3035
Yes, I know but it still sounds like "Phoenician" which has influenced multiple languages, Semitic and non-Semetic alike.
THE TRUTH WILL MAKE YOU FREE thats true for all languages tho
THE TRUTH WILL MAKE YOU FREE also i looked up the closest living language to Phoenician is hebrew which sounds very phonetically different from PIE
Sounds like if PIE and Arabic had a baby
So modern Hebrew?
@@fredriks5090 wow that's surprisingly accurate. Nice

What, when, where?

Sounds like proto-Balto-Slavic to me...
it sounds like sanskrit
no one: ridley scott --> NORTH FACE
Is it wierd for a Serb to understand so many words from it... Oh my...
It's only natural
It was so weird for me too when I first saw a couple of texts in PIE. I speak Portuguese and I was shocked because I saw so many words that Portuguese still uses everyday, like the word for Bird (Ave) the word for fire (Fogo) the numbers, the word for you (tu) etc. I want to learn PIE, but I find it so difficult but someday I will be able to speak it.
If humans originated in East Africa ? how does this language relate to the Bantu or Luo languages ?
Humans migrated to Europe and Asia tens of thousands of years before the emergence of Proto-Indo-European
Easy answer: *They didn't*
That is the oldest they could find
I know this is an old comment. But we're not sure yet, and it might not relate at all depending on when humans developed language. If we developed it before leaving Africa, then we will probably eventually find the relations, but if language developed agree we left then we will find probably a dozen or so examples where it developed independently
They did not originated in Africa. We did formed one global civilization once though.
IM.KUR.GA.RA., MA.GUR.GUR., LU.GAL., E.TAMEN.AN.KI., etc
That's Sumerian, isn't it?
@@TyrHymirson yep
Reestablish 𒂍𒀭𒂗𒆠
As someone studying Sumerian, I can attempt to provide translation.
IM.KUR.GA.RA
~IM might be “im” (clay). It could also be an abbreviated form of the copula “to be” transliterated as “i-me,” though I suspect the former.
The last part may be a reference to the “kurgarra,” one of the androgynous creatures created to enter the Kur with Inanna in “Inanna’s Descent into the Netherworld.” Otherwise, without context, its constituent morphemes don’t seem to make much sense. KUR can code for several different words the most notable of which are the noun “kur” meaning “mountain, land, underworld,” or for the verb “kur” meaning “to enter.” GA is a very prolific sign so the possible readings are numerous. RA in a word-final position normally would be the human-gender Dative affix “-ra”, but it is usually reduced to just “-r” when preceded by an open syllable. If it is the dative affix, this particular inscription is probably an overcorrection from the Old Babylonian period, as was common in inscriptions from that time. If it isn’t the dative affix, it could code for “rah” (to beat, crush), or “ra3” (to be pure, clear).
MA.GUR.GUR.
~first element appears to be “ma” (“boat”). Without subscript numbers to identify which morpheme GUR is coding for in this instance it’s hard to know what to read it as without context. It could be “gur” “to lift” reduplicated to indicate plurality of the subject, but this seems unlikely.
Other possibilities are: “gur2” (circle, rim), “gur4” (to feel big), “gur4-gur4” (some kind of drinking vessel), “gur5” (“guru”) (to grind), “gur10” (to reap), among other possible readings. If it is a composite word then I am unfamiliar with it.
LU.GAL
~transliterated as “lugal,” the Sumerian word for “king,” literally: “man-big”
E.TEMEN.AN.KI
~”etemenanki” the name of a ziggurat in Babylon translating to “house/temple-foundation-heaven-earth,” or less literally: “temple of the foundation of heaven and earth.” The second morpheme is borrowed from Akkadian “temennu.”
Is that peewee hurman ? 😁
In Cambodian languages it call it Khmer . The monk when they prey they spokes Indochina old languages that ppl now can't even understand .
Sounds like Roy batty
Agunsa
can you give more detail please?
Sumerian is older and it may be the true ancestor of all PIE languages.
Finally, somebody noticed...
The language of Anu, Enki, and Enlil... the real engineers.
Sumerian potentially could've _been_ PIE for all we know
Was sumerian an indo european language or semitic?
@@afrules9097 it could technically be referred to as an indo European or eurasian language
I'm pretty sure that the dolphins have the oldest language in the world.
Source: my ass.
Very clever. Thank you. I'm look for as many clues as possible tis won't be easy and this won't be quick
Sounds like german.
Sanskrit rather
All indo-European language related to Sanskrit .
Prehistoric Prophet the other way around
They're also all related to Vötgil.
Albanian language is related to none of today's languages
Albanian is related to proto-Albanian, which is related to proto-indo-european
Rinas Nachy neither is indigenous Australian. Albanian usually means “I’m a thief, throw me that phone”.
Where'd you get that idea? Albanian is very different from the other Indo-European languages, I'll grant that. It's undergone some very unique changes. But it's still Indo-European, and is therefore closely related to the other members of that language family. That's fully demonstrable and has been known since the 19th century.
@manmachine30 Basque is its own thing entirely - the last remaining member of the languages spoken in Europe BEFORE the Indo-European migrations.
Albanian is proto indo European, genius
This sound like talking with mine Grandfather in Serbia or Makedonia
Not only are the Engineers who create all humanity pure white and European looking they speak proto indo European what happened to Ridley Scott? a polished turd of a movie
It’s pretty based actually
Yall know this is nonsense, somebody created a language in a movie to make believe its indo european? This just gibbeling and def not indoeurpean. If you want old language to hear, possibly thw most oldest, learn albanian.
(sorry for lot of caps - it has a reason) soo ookay, but you have to keep in mind the following (I'll CAPITALIZE the important words - these are all quoted from the linguist's speech which can be heard in the video)
"the engineers use a languae which is REFERRED TO GENERALLY as PROTO-indo-european ... it's the language which is HYPOTHESIZED as being the ANCESTOR of ALL INDO-EUROPEAN languages [...] AND THIS HYPOTHESIZED ANCESTOR IS REFERRED TO AS PROTO-INDO-EUROPEAN [...] the OLDEST POSSIBLE HYPHOTESIZED SPEECH"
..yeah, sorry for caps, but this is the case. And by the way, YOUR COMMENT HERE SERVES WHAT PURPOSE AGAIN? -thanks!
@@kvazimozi_EN you want know whats the purpose? Well, the gibberish language in the movie of Prometheus doesnt exist, but albanian do. Albanian is a prototype indo-european language. So far on that 😉
@@cokduvak2615 well then I guess they did a good job in an escapist science fiction movie not using down-to-earth Albanian language for the engineers. That would have been hilarious btw :D
Anyhow, I still don't see youre point here. In the movie yes they use gibberish, because the aim was to make up something HYPOTHETICAL which would sounds as the anchient mother-of-all language would have; as I'm almost sure you know that Albanian is coming from somewhere else. What's your problem?
@@kvazimozi_EN in fact albanian is its own branche. So no albanian came from nowhere and its not related any other. All aother indoeuropean languages are related to another. I bring this on the point of engineers, because when i watched the movie Alien: Covenant, i thought to hear an albanian phrase by the so called engineers. In the moment when david commit genocide (at the flashback scene) they says two, three words in ther own language. The first two are not really understandable, but the third what clearly heard sound very albanian. And that circumstances of the situation when the protoganist screamed mbrenda ore brenda, (wich is really crearly) was said to the folk in the meaning of, run or go inside. And now, heres the clue, mbrenda or mrena means in albanian inside. Coincidence? I was suprise when i heard that, but check it out of yourself. So why would hollywood do that is my question?
