GERMANIC LINGUISTICS #14 - EAST GERMANIC: GOTHIC

Finally we begin to analyze more specifically the individual Germanic languages: we start with the Eastern branch, the only one that did not make it to the present day, and with Gothic, immortalized by Ulfilas. If he had decided, instead of commissioning the translation of the Bible, to scratch his belly at home, we would all be culturally poorer today. Respect, Wulfila, if you were still alive I would show you my appreciation inviting you for a beer.

I count about 84 comments on three different accounts from that one Romanian guy spamming the comment section. It's hard to tell if he's copypasting or using AI or what, but it's impressive.

In thracian is the word colindă written kalindia see Kalindia at thracian Duridanov Oceanos Patmos at google wich are also the other words wich I wrote here at this video and means a road wich is the romanian word colindă wich means a road very often walked by people see colindă at the romanian dictionary wich has the verb colinda wich means to walk, to travel, to go. Kalindia was written by the greek Ptolomy so it was written with greek letters/vocals and Kalindia pronounced/pronunced with the vocals like in greek wich are pronounced/pronunced like in french, english is in sounds/sounds Colindă and in gothic is the same word the verb colindan written galeithan, colind and the suffix of gothic verbs an/jan and it means to walk, travel, to go. So in gothic as I wrote before here the vocals are pronounced/pronunced like in french, english because of the names of persons from the gothic bible wich are written totally diferent/different many of them than they should have been written if they would had been read like in latin see the pronounciation/pronunciation of the gothic vocals at the gothic alphabet wikipedia and in the new and old germanic languages this word/verb does not exist with the preposition/adverb ka/ga or ge/gi in front of the verb like in thracian or gothic kalindia and galeithan, ka and lindia and ga and leithan pronounced/pronunced the same in thracian and gothic pronounced/pronunced with the root colind and this proves that the language from the bible written in gothic with greek letters is the thracian, geto dacian language and not germanic

In romanian means to turn wich in romanian means also to walk over and over in a space, building, house and in new and old germanic/in old norse is verf wich means only to turn, to turn around and not to walk like in romanian and gothic and in norse is verf so with f and not with b like in romanian, gothic volb, holb, horb

See in gothic w is written also uu see at the gothic alphabet at hw rune that the name of the rune hw wich is hwair was written also as huuair and since is hwas/huuas the nominative wich means who and since as I proved that where in gothic is s, z their is also s, z in thracian, geto dacian and since the gothic words are thracian, geto dacian this means that in thracian, geto dacian is also cine written hvas/huas and is also the form cue, cui, cua written hve/hue, hvi/hui, hva/hua wich means what? and in latin are the same forms/formes/form qui, qua wich means also what? and in the new and old germanic languages this form/forms/formes does not exist and this proves once again that the language from the gothic bible is not germanic

Some stone inscriptions discovered in Mangup Crimea, dated to the 9th-10th centuries, match the orthography and phrasing of Wulfila's Bible, but are not found ( Psalm 77:13 ) in it. What survived centuries beyond that time is only alluded to by some personal accounts, but need not be dismissed for the sake of modern convenience.
