अयं निज: परो वेति गणना लघुचेतसाम्।
उदारमनसानां तु वसुधैव कुटुंबकम्॥
This is mine or (somebody) else’s (is the way) narrow minded people count.
But for broad minded people, (whole) earth is (like their) family. -
Are they the same letters that the Greek translation uses?In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.Comment

Except šč. That I added because that is the form (or similar like št, šć, š, č, etc.) the uvular q took in satem languages, so it's only for comparison reasons to appear as if it was in Slavic languages. In Mycenaean Greek it was most likely q or a sound similar to it.अयं निज: परो वेति गणना लघुचेतसाम्।

Small question, is it possible that the word mavijo refers to a pot ?
If so, Mev in Macedonian is a leather bag for transporting Wine and since Pot is also a storage dish there can be a relation.To enquire after the impression behind an idea is the way to remove disputes concerning nature and reality.Comment

No, mevijo means medium. Pot is dipa.
Let me translate that part for you:
dipa, mezoe, qetor-ove
pot, large, four-eared
dipae, mezoe, tiri-ovee
pots, large, three-eared
dipa, mevijo, qetor-ove
pot, medium, four-eared
dipa, mevijo, tirij-ove
pot, medium, three-eared
dipa, mevijo, an-ove
pot, medium, no-earedअयं निज: परो वेति गणना लघुचेतसाम्।

Thanx Slovak.Originally posted by Slovak/Anomaly/Tomas View Post
Ove certainly sounds like the Uvo both meaning ear.
The numbers also reasamble the numbers we use.
As for dipa, the closest possible related is the word Dolap which means something as wardrobe built in the wall.(In Serb similar to Ормар )
Certainly not the same, but in a way possibly related since both are some of containers.
who knows.........To enquire after the impression behind an idea is the way to remove disputes concerning nature and reality.Comment

Actually dipa sounds like the Slovak nadoba which also means pot.अयं निज: परो वेति गणना लघुचेतसाम्।

Well that is even closer than Dolap but still all tree can be related to each other.........Originally posted by Slovak/Anomaly/Tomas View PostTo enquire after the impression behind an idea is the way to remove disputes concerning nature and reality.Comment

This is interesting Slovak. What's the provenance of that inscription?
Also, I'm no linguist, but dipa might be an archaic form of the word dupka, which means 'hole'.
The reference to a cooking pot or pot of some sort is also functional, because holes are dug to make fire places, to make furnaces for cooking, smelting ...etc. Think of the "hole" of a traditional Roman fire place, which are usually underground, or in a basement ...etc. and how the use of a pot might relate to that. Its just an observation.Comment

Is there anything more elaborative? Surely this can't be all that the Greek 'theory' of origin relies upon?Originally posted by Slovak/Anomaly/Tomas View Post
dipa, mezoe, qetor-ove (Linear B)
nadopa, golemo, chetiri-uva (Slavic)
glastra, megali, tessaron autia (Greek)In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.Comment

Just let me comment on this in case its lost on me. The suggestion here is that Linear B has a closer connection to Slavic, than to Modern Greek ?Originally posted by Soldier of Macedon View PostComment

I am not sure which one is closer, but the Greek case doesn't seem to be 100% solid. I am suprised at the evident similarities with Slavic.In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.Comment
