Wasn't the word 'Arian/Aryan' originally coined to describe a language family, the one that more or less corresponds to the one now called 'Indo-European', where varying degrees of common roots can be traced back to Sanskrit? .... then the word got misused late in the last century to connote racial characteristics? ... and H.G. Wells sort of promoted the misuse in his Outline of History, then backed off in its revisions? ... something like this, i think ... recent thinking is that language and race do not follow as lockstep as that .. here's my fave language site - sil.org sil.org Not up on the thread here, not religious, just followed you over from suf ... go wsp ;-)
