It's nice to have words in the language of gods. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 07:09, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * In his latest article Martirosyan discusses shared poetic or mythical lexicon inherited from the Armenian-Greek-Indo-Iranian dialect union. Apart from, there belong also , , ,  and possibly , . --Vahag (talk) 09:21, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * What, nothing on ? So sad.
 * PS: If I were Armenian I'd build a little temple to Martirosyan in the corner of my room with McDonald's Happy Meal figurines. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 18:00, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, he's pretty awesome. He's the best thing to happen to Armenian linguistics since Ačaṙyan. And he gives me his articles to read and helps with some tough words. --Vahag (talk) 20:03, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * For some reason it makes me think of that silly experiment that some people did I think in the 1800s or something where they let children grow up without ever hearing spoken language so they would speak "original human language" instead. Derp derp. Derp derpaderpa derpderpderpderp. 13:16, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * According to Herodotus the Egyptian pharaoh Psammetichus II had two children raised in isolation in order to find the original language. The children were reported to have uttered βεκος which is Phrygian for "bread", so Psammetichus admitted that the Phrygians were a nation older than the Egyptians.
 * Of course, we all know that there is only one true god's language. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 18:00, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I like the Phrygian version more. We may be descended from them. --Vahag (talk) 20:03, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

"From Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰéyos, from *ǵʰey- (“to drive, impel, stimulate; to throw”)." According to LIV2, this is a raTHER questionable reconstruction, because only based upon Indo-Iranian words.HJJHolm (talk) 07:49, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That's because the language of gods was only disclosed to Indo-Iranian and Armenian tribes. The rest of petty mortals had to go along with *h₁éḱwos. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 07:56, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I had other explanation for *h₁éḱwos, but it was removed. HJJHolm, Martirosyan argues that after splitting from the Proto-Indo-European community, Armenians, Indo-Iranians and Greeks hung out together for a while and developed some isoglosses. Especially notable are parallels in the Armeno-Indo-Iranian poetic or mythical lexicon. Compare Armenian vs Sanskrit, also from the language of gods, as opposed to . When Hrach was recently in Yerevan, he proposed another parallel, Armenian  vs Sanskrit , from a late PIE formation with  and the suffix . --Vahag (talk) 17:51, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry barrel dragon-rider, according to Holm Armenian gets grouped with Albanian . They were the first to declare independence from the IE speech community. Ironically they could be the last to join th IE-rEUnion. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 18:21, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * You know, thinking about that... I can see the grammatical similarities.
 * mind = blown. —  [Ric Laurent] — 19:07, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * We're joining the goddamn Eurasian Union by coercion, not the EU :( If only we still had our dragons, Putin–Khuilo wouldn't have gotten away from me. --Vahag (talk) 19:50, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
