In this video, we compare some of the common words between Sicilian (sicilianu) and Greek (ελληνικά) with Gaia, representing Sicilian, and Athina, as the Greek speaker.
The Greek history in Sicily goes back to the 8th century BCE when the first Greek colonies were founded in eastern Sicily as the Chalcidian Greeks founded Zancle, Naxos, Leontinoi and Katane. The Corinthians founded Syracuse and the Megareans Megara Hyblaea, while the Cretans and Rhodians founded Gela.

Greek (ελληνικά) is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages with a written record of over 3,000 years, easily making it the oldest documented Indo-European language. The Greek alphabet, originating from the Phoenician script, was the basis of numerous other scripts, such as Latin, Cyrillic, Coptic, Gothic, and Armenian. The Greek language has virtually impacted other languages in every corner of the world, being an important component of Western civilization, the Christian religion, and the language of some of the fundamental texts of science, astronomy, and mathematics. The Greek language today holds official status in Greece and Cyprus, and is recognized as a minority language in Albania, Armenia, Hungary, Italy, Romania, and Ukraine.
Sicilian is a Romance language primarily spoken on the Italian island of Sicily.

This video is really fascinating because it demonstrates the Greek history that is very ancient in Sicily actually going back to the foundation of the first Greek colonies around the mid 8th century BC. The Greeks of Sicily were known as Siceliotes. Over the following centuries many conflicts between the city-states occurred until around 276 BC Pyrrhus of Epirus managed to conquer the whole island except Carthaginian Lilybaeum. After the First Punic War in 241 BC the island was conquered by the Romans.

All of those words are latin words that in their turn decent from Greek words.To give you an example the cherry was cultivated in Kerasun.When kerasun was conquered that fruit which was unknown to rome was paraded in their triumph.They named it after the city it was produced.Kerasun is in modern day Turkey and due to the inability to pronounce it properly in the eastern language they call it Gerasun.So we got Kerasin which is the Greek,Cerasium which is the same just with a latin endfix and then we got cherry today in english. Now a major important rule.C.C is the same as K everywhere but when it is in the end of the word.Then it is pronounced S.That medieval Greek.So basically Cerasun and Kerasun are the same.Problem is this rule was lost with words of different cities and countries but it still is true.Thats the reason in enlish their say Cooper(koper) which is a metal named in latin after Cyprus but they dont say Kyprus which is the corect one they say Saiprus.

Thanks for such a video .I liked their presentation, their smiling faces like roses, lulia. I am actually from Kashmir/ Ceshmir(Chesmir). Your grand grand Ancestors had migrated during wanderers and gatherers times firstly and later on Greek rule was established. I am working on the origin of our language. It has all the similarities with the Albanian language. Construction of sentences, articles, prepositions and all alphabet letters consonants and vowels which the Albanian language has. All these words exist in our language with the same old greek. At the same time our language has Germanic words and sentence formats.

Actually, Greeks still use the word "Kouros" to refer to a good looking young man, and it still survives in the word "kourion" (barber shop for men) and "kourazome" (κουράζομαι = I get tired from hard work, as only young men work) . In fact, scratch every modern Greek word and you will find that it is actually timeless in origin and "semasiological" (semantic) context.

@panagiotisterpandrouzachar7754
@panagiotisterpandrouzachar7754 3 місяці тому
@@troiscarottes Yes, "semantic". The word semantic is Greek from sēmantikos "significant," from sēmainein "to show by sign, signify, point out, indicate by a sign," from sēma "sign, mark, token; omen, etc. As a greek, I prefer to use the word "semasiological" although it has not been borrowed into english in this form. It is more accurate amongst Greek linguists since the derivative "semasia" refers to the "meaning" of a word, whereas "semantic" (semantikos) denotes importance/significance, so semantic is actually wrong in its literal usage. Be it as it may, I am sorry for the confusion due to my overcorrection. (Thanks to your question I clarified it in parentheses) However, I am impressed that you related the word to what I meant.

The two words actually have different roots. κοῦρος comes from *κόρϝος and the Indo-European word for "to grow", just like κόρος/κόρεσμος. κουράζομαι from κουρά, κορμός, κείρω from the Indo-European root for "to cut"/"to sheer".

@panagiotisterpandrouzachar7754 3 місяці тому
@@enyalios316 there is no such language as “Indo-European”, for the latter is a theory propounded to explain similarities. The fact remains that Greek seems to be the only language where these supposed “Indo-European” roots are found in so many derivatives, signifying that Greek may very well be the prime root. And you are right about kourein meaning to sheer/cut. We still use it in this meaning both to name barber shops ( as κουρείον) and the sheering of sheep ( as κουρά). Κουράδα is also a candidate 😊.. Ergo, as previously mentioned, it is quite possible that “Hellenic” is the mother dubbed as “Indo-European” , the influence of the former expanded from Europe to India.

Under communism, some communities merged, but most retain their ethnic groups. The Muslims originated somewhere in central Asia, near the Alban river, and were imported as settlers by the current sultan ruling at that time.

Just a note on the 1st topic "koros"(κόρος)- "kouros"(κούρος) is the male form of ancient AND modern Greek for female "kori"(κόρη), which actually is "girl" in English. Just to make things more interesting in complication, in modern Greek it's common to refer girls in neutral form "koritsi"(κορίτσι). Noteworthy in modern Greek the word for boy is only in neutral form: "agori"(αγόρι). Please feel free to comment on that. Thank you.

The word for clock is actually ωρολόγιον (pronounced as oroloyion) and its simplified modern form is ρολόι . The etymology of word ωρολόγιον is from the word ώρα (that has given the english word hour) and the suffix -λόγιον that denotes a machinery/apparatus to depict the first part of the word Examples ανεμολόγιον , ανεμος -> wind , the apparatus to show the winds ημερολόγιον , ημέρα is day , so ημερολόγιον shows the days, it is the calendar.

Founded by Greek colonists of Magna Graecia in the 8th century BC, Messina was originally called Zancle (Greek: Ζάγκλη), from the Greek ζάγκλον meaning "scythe" because of the shape of its natural harbour (though a legend attributes the name to King Zanclus). A comune of its Metropolitan City, located at the southern entrance of the Strait of Messina, is to this day called 'Scaletta Zanclea'. Solinus wrote that the city of Metauros was established by people from Zancle.[9] In the early 5th century BC Anaxilas of Rhegium renamed it Messene (Μεσσήνη) in honour of the Greek city Messene (See also List of traditional Greek place names). Later, Micythus was the ruler of Rhegium and Zancle, and he also founded the city of Pyxus.[10] The city was sacked in 397 BC by the Carthaginians and then reconquered by Dionysius I of Syracuse. a tract of around 30 kilometres of beaches of Messina the Feluca, a typical boat used by the fishermen of Messina to hunt swordfish In 288 BC the Mamertines seized the city by treachery, killing all the men and taking the women as their wives. The city became a base from which they ravaged the countryside, leading to a conflict with the expanding regional empire of Syracuse. Hiero II, tyrant of Syracuse, defeated the Mamertines near Mylae on the Longanus River and besieged Messina. Carthage assisted the Mamertines because of a long-standing conflict with Syracuse over dominance in Sicily. When Hiero attacked a second time in 264 BC, the Mamertines petitioned the Roman Republic for an alliance, hoping for more reliable protection. Although initially reluctant to assist lest it encourage other mercenary groups to mutiny, Rome was unwilling to see Carthaginian power spread further over Sicily and encroach on Italy. Rome, therefore, entered into an alliance with the Mamertines. In 264 BC, Roman troops were deployed to Sicily, the first time a Roman army acted outside the Italian Peninsula. At the end of the First Punic War it was a free city allied with Rome. In Roman times Messina, then known as Messana, had an important pharos (lighthouse). Messana was the base of Sextus Pompeius, during his war against Octavian.[citation needed] After the fall of the Western Roman Empire the city was successively ruled by Goths from 476, then by the Byzantine Empire in 535, by the Arabs in 842, and in 1061 by the Norman brothers Robert Guiscard and Roger Guiscard (later count Roger I of Sicily). In 1189 the English King Richard I ("The Lionheart") stopped at Messina en route to the Holy Land for the Third Crusade and briefly occupied the city after a dispute over the dowry of his sister, who had been married to William the Good, King of Sicily. In 1345 Orlando d'Aragona, the illegitimate son of Frederick II of Sicily was the strategos of Messina.[citation needed] In 1347 Messina was one of the first points of entry for the black death into Western Europe. Genoese galleys travelling from the infected city of Kaffa carried plague into the Messina ports. Kaffa had been infected via Asian trade routes and the siege of Kaffa from infected Mongol armies led by Janibeg; it was a departure point for many Italian merchants who fled the city to Sicily. Contemporary accounts from Messina tell of the arrival of "Death Ships" from the East, which floated to shore with all the passengers on board already dead or dying of plague. Plague-infected rats probably also came aboard these ships. The black death ravaged Messina and rapidly spread northward into mainland Italy from Sicily in the following few months.[citation needed]

In Italiano si dice 'magari' per dire 'spero che'. In Italiano si dice 'macheroni' per dire pasta da manggiare. Pero non si sa che tutte e due parole provengono dal Greco. Per esempio '' Οι Μακαρες Θεοι'' = 'I Makares Thei. Che significa '' I beati Dei''

Macari in siciliano però significa "Anche/pure" , Gaia si è dimenticata di specificarlo. Esempio: Veni macari iddu= Viene anche lui.

Δεν είναι αλήθεια. Έζησα μαζί τους για μήνες και στην Απουλία και στην Καλαβρία. Φυσικά αισθάνονται συνδεμένοι με τις ρίζες τους, αλλά είναι Ιταλοί που θέλουν να ζήσουν στην Ιταλία με ισονομία και ισοτιμία. Το ίδιο όπως και οι Έλληνες Εβραίοι Σεφαράντι. Αισθάνονται ότι οι ρίζες τους είναι στην Ισπανία, αλλά είναι Έλληνες. Το ίδιο κι ένας μετανάστης από οικογένεια που βρίσκεται 500 χρόνια στην Αμερική.

One person wrote on one of the pages: "Sicily have a lot iberian admix specially west sicily aragonese-castillian kingdom of sicily 1282/1714 ,400 years of brother mediterranean alliance". In Georgian it means laught, and I didn't know if it was related to Iberia, but I knew that its name is a Georgian word. repeats exactly
