My dear brother, i hold your tajweed, quran, and arabic grammer in the highest of esteem. If i doubt a certaon pronounciation in quran, i refer to you since it is clear to me that you have mastered this science beautifully and are very trustworthy and knowledgable in this matter. Having said that, it is a known fact that both anglo saxon and latin as well as french, russian, persian, pashto, hindi, bengali and thousands of others are indo european languages originating north of the black sea and central asia, whereas arabic, hebrew, somali, hausa, amazigh, and all these are afro asiatic, altogether unrelated to indo european, uralic, bantu, turkic, and other language families. Arabic is the most beautiful language in my opinion, since it is the language of the quran, and the prophes sallallahu alayhi wasallam and the three favored gereations radillah anhum, and no other can match its depth, eloquence, and beaty but that does not mean it is the oldest. Please, be either more thorough or truthfull, whichever is lacking in this video. Understand we value your content specifically because it is great quality, close detail, authentic, and you are knowledgable in this, so when you make these kinds of rediculous claims, it does not benefit either you nor us, so that disbelievers do not think of us as fools. Please kerp making the good videos you are used to making and we are used to seeing. Salam

This video has inaccuracies. أرجو (I request, I hope) does not mean "rego" (to rule, to guide) كنس (to hide/to retreat/to sweep) does not mean "cinis" (ashes, embers, ruin, destruction) نقص (to decrease) does not mean "necesse" (necessary, needed) Anglo-Saxon ورى (creation, to kindle) does not mean "wara" (an inhabitant, to care, to guard) هون (easy) does not mean "hwon" (a few, a little) ورد (watering hole) does not mean "wyrt" (plant, vegetable, herb) English صنح (cymbal, harp) does not mean "song" هب (thinking, to move suddenly) does not mean "hop" رج (to shake) does not mean "rock" ... 75% of Latin verb roots and 80% of Anglo-Saxon verbs does not have Arabic origins. Latin and Anglo-Saxon have distinct roots in the Indo-European family, while Arabic belongs to the Afroasiatic family. Arabic has influenced European languages through trade and cultural exchanges, but not to this extent. The word "سكر" (sugar), cited as an example in the video, originates from Middle Persian (𐭱𐭪𐭥), which, in turn, derives from the Sanskrit word "शर्करा." Like all languages, Arabic has borrowed words from other languages, a process that is a natural part of linguistic evolution. Arabic isn't unique in this regard, as linguistic exchange is a universal phenomenon. The claim that words stem from Arabic instead of Latin due to the greater number of Arabic roots is logically flawed. A language having more roots doesn't imply that specific words in another language originated from it. Language development is complex, involving various influences that cannot be explained by sheer volume alone; historical interactions, trade, and cultural exchanges play a crucial role. As Muslims, we need to move beyond the idea of Arabic or Arab superiority. Arabic is a language like any other, not inherently more divine. If Allah willed, the Quran could have been revealed in any language, just as easily. To claim that Arabic was uniquely necessary for this purpose undermines Allah's boundless power.

@@MixtureGuyWhat you say is true! In the video he neglects that fact that Arabic is a member of the Afro-Asiatic Indo Arabian language family. This means that it is a Semitic Language related to Hebrew and Syriac languages. This part of the map was a crossway for the world, affecting many African, Central/South Asian and European languages. However, this language has pretty much no affect on Sino Asiatic Languages such as Chinese and couldn't of spread to North America.

"Tall" didn't mean tall until about 500 years ago. Its similarity to an Arabic word is probably coincidental. Though one can speculate whether the change in meaning was influenced by Arabic. "The sense of "being of more than average height (and slim in proportion to height)" probably evolved out of earlier meanings "brave, valiant, seemly, proper" (c. 1400), "attractive, handsome" (late 14c.), also "large, big" (mid-14c.), as sometimes in Modern English, colloquially. The sense evolution is "remarkable," says OED (1989), but it notes that adjectives applied to persons can wander far in meaning (such as pretty, buxom, German klein "small, little," which in Middle High German meant the same as its English cognate clean (adj.))."

You are talking specifically about the connection between Arabic and European languages. A lot of Asian, African, Aboriginal and Native American languages have nothing to do with Arabic.
Yep. Just look at the languages that never had contact with Arabic and the Middle East and you’ll see how baseless his claims are. I’d love to see him try to show how Chinese or Korean words come from Arabic roots - there just isn’t any relation at all
I am Somali and I assure you that many Somali terms are derived from Arabic, and some terms have disappeared and the Arabic term remained, such as “time” which is “waqti” = وقت.
Brother, with all due respect, this video is misleading. You can believe that Arabic is a wonderful language, and acknowledge the ways in which it has heavily contributed to the vocabularies of many languages, while still being scientific about this. Firstly, every language changes. Every single one. Arabic included. Arabic as it was 1400 years ago itself was the product of millenia of changes, as is every other language. Contribution of loaned vocabulary words IS NOT the same as being the "source language" of another tongue. That's why the Persian language, for all its Arabic loans, is incomprehensible to an Arab who doesnt speak Persian. Language is more than vocabulary. It's a system that is made up of syntax rules, morphology/grammar, and phonology. Vocabulary is one portion of the system. Also, this completely goes out of the window when you compare Arabic to any Sinitic language, any Andean language - basically, anywhere not in contact with Muslims or Romans.
The internet is filled with this sort of pseudoscience. The guy cites one obscure book by an unknown author. These people do a disservice to Arabic by making such outlandish claims. Stick to tajweed I say. Don't try to branch out into the science of linguistics if you know nothing about it.
11:04 although I agree it is a bit misleading, he also says it's just a theory, so he recognizes that this is not 100% true. Rather, I would say he is just trying to share the amazing similarities of Arabic in other languages
@@GHasBack What is he lying about? I don't think Arabic is the Origin but I do know that it is older than claimed and even before it was Arabic it was something else with the same roots. Syriac, Semetic, Aramiac, Egyptian....etc. Same language, same culture.
Whoa the Arab superiority complex is strong. With all due respect, it’s dumb to suggest Adam spoke Arabic. There are languages that have written records that are older than Arabic - Akkadian, Sumerian, Egyptian and those are only the WRITTEN languages. Arabic is one of many AFRO-Semitic languages. Emphasis on AFRO…AFRICAN. The first languages were spoken not written. There are African civilizations that exist today who have been speaking their languages before Arabic was thought of. Stop the lies and propaganda.
This video is misleading. I am a Muslim. Islam doesn't support Arab supremacy. He probably brainwashed by some affiliated ignorant. But besides this I want to ask you what do you think about the language of Ad Samud who were Arabs before Ismail Alaihisalam? What do think about their language how old that would be ?
Nope. This video does not suggest that Adam speaks Arabic. Arabic only came from Mesopotamia~Aramaic~Hebrew Koine. Timeline Arab came from Ishmael, from Abraham, ANYWAY.
40% of words that are used in my language today are either Arabic or from Arabic root. And not just similarity, they are literally same words. Also, we're only counting ones used in modern days not the whole 14 centuries.
Probably because your language is semitic, or spoken by people who are muslims, and have been for a long time. YOUR CLAIM PROVES NOTHING!!! The claims presented in this video are OUTLANDISH and not backed up by ANY sources.
This video seems to completely neglect the development of the English language. For example, look up the etymology of the word "tall" - late Middle English: probably from Old English getæl ‘swift, prompt’. Early senses also included ‘fine, handsome’ and ‘bold, strong, good at fighting’. It's very unscientific to take the modern definition of a word and compare it to classical Arabic whilst ignoring the history of the word and how it has evolved and the meaning has changed. The methodolgy is all over the place. You accept the modern meaning of "tall", but you go have to old German for "Harbour". And even this denies that the habour is traced back to two words harjaz, meaning army, and bergo, meaning protection. I can't find a reference for "hunan Berg" This is the definition of cherry picking. Not to mention that Classical Arabic itself has its own history, with other semitic languages like Hebrew and Akkadian having a far earlier attestation. Any meaningful analysis would have to take place at the level of the proto languages. Just because things are similar that doesn't mean they are related. Sorry to say, but this video flies in the face of literally everything we know about linguistics. Allah knows best.
Nop. You just show you believe the western etymologists whom invented the PIE. I made etymologic investigation, and many proves that linguists of the 19th century made speculations without root. One thing important to keep in mind : the words are borrowed, so we don't know when "Tall" came in english, it could be in the 14th century, when jews were expelled from Spain, and reached netherland and later on england. So my point here : the protosemitic langue is the source of the PIE. I wrote many articles for demonstrations, going deeper than this video. The word Earth is semitic : أرض. Try to deny :)
@@victoremman4639 The claim that a tiny immigrant population of Jews could have influenced the majority of farming peasants in Western Europe to start using the words "earth" or "tall", something that they would have used on a daily basis, is frankly, absurd, especially when you consider that the Sephardic Jews themselves didn't speak Hebrew as a daily language. But feel free to demonstrate, using textual evidence, the evolution of these words from Ladino into Dutch and or English. I'd be happy to read your article for a deeper conversation.

Although Arabic is a very beautiful and rich ancient language, especially Quranic Arabic, which has influenced many other languages, it couldn't be the case that all other languages originated somehow from Arabic, because the Arabic language can't be older than the prophet Ibrahim or Ismail pbut and from modern historical science we know that these prophets lived approximately 5000 - 5500 years ago. Moreover, even when the prophet Ibrahim left Mesopotamia (Iraq) for Palestine, he spoke the language of his fathers, the Mesopotamian language, which is different from ancient Arabic of the times of prophet Muhammad pbuh or ancient Hebrew of the prophets Musah and Harun pbut.
Yes I also believe that the origin of language is far older than Arabic and it may no longer exists now, and that doesn't lower my respect toward Arabic as the language of Qur'an
No Who told you arabic is not ancient or that it didnt exist before the time of ismail peace be upon him? Jarham , the first arabic *tribe* to live in makka , after asking permission from hajar , the mother ismail himself , jarham was speaking arabic (an ancient way of arabic that died eventually) and ismail learned it from them Also , there was Thamod and A'ad (with the mighty city of Erum), two great people of arabia who existed well before ibrahim ,Erum itself was mentioned by Phoenicians almost 10 thousands years ago , theyre known btween arabs as the "arab bae'dah" or extinct arabs, theyre the forefathers of arab civilization and theyre ethnic arab Fyi , arabs are divided into 2 categories, 3 are subcategories: 1)arab ba'edah or "extinct arabs" (extinct arab tribes like A'ad, Thamod, and the nabatians).... 2)arab arebah or "arab arabs" (the arab tribes who still live to this day and age, those who can trace their lineage back to known ancient arab tribes) those too are ethnic arabs who the language was born in their communities and civilization 2) arab musta'arebah or "arabnized arabs" the arabs that werent ethnic arabs but their mother language is arab, like alot of people in north africa or some minorities in different areas around the arab world ... Being an ethnic arab or an arabnized arab doesnt really make a difference tho , scholars argue that if your mother tongue is arabic , then youre an arab , regardless of your lineage
@@someone_7233 as far as I know Arabs consider themselves as descendants of prophet Ismail pbuh and his twelve sons. If so, how could his ancestors be Arabs and speak Arabic? Those ancient nations you mentioned were not Arabs, but nations who lived in the Arabic peninsula or in the Middle East. Maybe their languages were close to later Arabic, but those languages were not Arabic. Don't be like Jews who claim that prophets Ibrahim, Nuh, and Adam pbut were Jews and spoke Hebrew. Probably, all Sematic languages originated from the language of Mesopotamia, where prophet Ibrahim pbuh was born and grew up.
As far as i know, Ibrahim was praying in Quran " i settle my offspring in the uncultivated valley, close to your sacred house, ... Make people's hearts turn to them." This means there was tribe live near that Area, that was the Arab Musta'ribah
@@flowerinkplant it doesn’t mean it was a tribe there. Prophet Ismail’s mother couldn’t find any water in the area for a while and ran between the tops of two hills Safa and Marua to see if there any water sources in the area, while the baby was crying. At that time, prophet Ibrahim pbuh had already moved to the modern Palestinian land from modern Iraqi land, and he was quite old. When his second son, prophet Ishaq (Isaak) was born, he was too old.
This is a bit over the top in my opinion (im arab by the way), the reason of similarities could be that in the golden age of islam baghdad (the capital of iraq) was the place for science and everything was written in arabic back then so the students in every part in the world used to travel to baghdad and translate books to transfer the knowledge to their country, and over time they got affected by some vocabularies (not everything could be tranlated) and it develobed overtime to become actual words Similar to whats happening now in the arab world we use lots of english words in our daily speech because everything now in English and anyone who wants to get education he must know english and some of these words actually made it to the formal language like "Computer" = "كومبيوتر" (i know this isn't a good example)
@@Tomato_League "Computer" = "كومبيوتر" is a very lazy translation, from ignorant of arabic. The arabic word should be مِعددة or مِقسمة . So the weird word كومبيوتر is not from any linguist.

Finally, you seem to ignore all the arguments used in this video to justify these reflections (such as the historical facts with the Turkish texts which have changed over time, passing to the origin of Arabic, or the origin of word harbour with the invasions of the United Kingdom by the Vikings, which supported the fact that harbour came from hunan burj, or the fact that Arabic has more than 16,000 roots while other languages have 20 at 8 times less, or the interpretation of certain verses of the Qur'An or the names of Adam, his wives and his children which have letters exclusive to the Arabic language and so on etc...) While you don't cite any arguments.
European languages might have gotten the word for sugar from Arab traders, but the Arabs themselves got it from the old Persians and the Persians from the Indians ( शर्करा • (śárkarā) in Sanskrit)
*As linguist in both languages with native mastery, I gotta tell you the examples of the similar words is shocking and in no way mere coincidence. If as far away geographically German and Indian languages were decided by scholars to be related under the Indio-European language because they share similar root words, I don’t understand why Arabic, Latin or Anglo-Saxon can’t be related when they’re relatively closer geographically? There should be a new family of languages called Semito-European or Arabico-European. The only issue you have in this video is that you injected it with religion near the end. You should’ve kept religion out as that can create a controversy.😉*
If Arabic was the original language that all others derived from, this video should hold true for ALL languages. Instead, it only applies to languages whose speakers historically had contact with Arabs. But this doesn't apply to others like Native American languages, or the languages of the far east like Korean and Japanese. A much better explanation is that the observations in the video are a result of a mix of cultural exchange and coincidence.
Arabic has had a huge influence on the vocabulary of many languages around the world, but this video is highly misleading in promoting a pseudoscientific hypothesis on the origin of Indo-European languages that is not based in sound historical linguistic methodology. I encourage anyone watching to read up on the vast world of historical linguistics and the comparative methods that allow us to reconstruct the relationships between languages. Nationalist and religious movements have a long history of promoting their favored language as the origin of all others, but you are missing out on the fruits of an incredibly interesting field if you elevate these "theories" to the same level of centuries of critical, evidence-based investigation. The truth is so much more interesting, I promise.

Proto Latin and proto Semetic shared the same root, as do all languages on their timelines. This theory is wrong, however. Islamic history even accounts for the development of Arabic from proto-Semetic by naming a man y3rob يعرب as the first to speak Arabic, descended from Qahtan who was the origin of the Arab ethnicity within Semetic peoples. Just as it accounted for how languages developed over time, Islamic history here also accounts for how ethnicities as social structures arise over time. The lineage of the prophet Muhammad for example is مستغرب meaning Arabized since the paternal lineage of the Quraysh is traced to Ismaiil, who was from the loins of Abraham and settled among the Arabs becoming Arabized. Arabic has certainly changed less over time because of the Quran and the cultural value of eloquence pre-Islam prepared the language as a medium for revalation. The ayah that he mentioned where Adam was taught all names, which then became the basis for all languages is most correct. Allahu 'Alam

"From the very beginning of Indo-European studies, there have been attempts to link the Indo-European languages genealogically to other languages and language families. However, these theories remain highly controversial, and most specialists in Indo-European linguistics are skeptical or agnostic about such proposals." Wikipedia
While 70% similarity is significant, it doesn't necessarily imply that anglo-saxon or latin originated from Arabic. It could just be that both share a common ancestor. Same with Adam's language. Albeit, Arabic might be closer to that original language than anglo-saxon, given the age. In ancient Egypt the name of the first woman translates to: she who lives, which is the literal translation of the word "Hawa'a" in Arabic. Hebrew and Arabic sharing the same ancestor, is also another clue, for a proto-semitic language, from which Indo-European languages could've branched.
I am an Arab, and a Muslim. No, Arabic is not the original language. Sure, Arabic is old, very old. But, it’s not the original language because it didn’t give rise to Indo-European languages, Sinitic languages, Navajo, Bantu etc. All of these are either loanwords or words that just so happened to sound similar. The harbour examples annoys me a lot because harbour comes from the Proto-Germanic words, harjaz ( army ) and bergō ( protection ) and it isn’t related to Arabic at all. The Arabic word سكر has no root, as it’s not a native Arabic word. It was borrowed from Sanskrit. Other words like موز and فيل also aren’t native to Arabic at all!

@@starlonga i cant see what my original comment said so i am unsure what ur talking about due to my poor memory but it is still a theory with some claims and facts but u don't have to accept it.
@Arabic 101 This is a very flawed claim: Three major problems: 1. having more root words does not make a language the source of another language with lesser roots.. a language that has been influenced by multiple other languages will also have many roots and often those roots have similar meaning, example; English being influenced by Romance (latin) and Germanic (anglo-saxon) has more roots than either. 2. Why no mention of years, places and time periods when discussing language history (etmology) the oldest evidence of the existence of arabic is not much before Islam.. Arabic belongs to the Semitic group of languages of which Aramaic and Hebrew are much older. Semitic languages themselves belong to Afro-Asiatic languages which are much older and have been the origin for many languages across Africa. 3. The words with similarity to english have developed less than two thousand years back and mainly after the Islamic conquests and via Arab traders. If Arabic is the origin of these languages why are there no words before these influencing events??
In the video he neglects that fact that Arabic is a member of the Afro-Asiatic Indo Arabian language family. This means that it is a Semitic Language related to Hebrew and Syriac languages. This part of the map was a crossway for the world, affecting many African, Central/South Asian and European languages. However, this language has pretty much no affect on Sino Asiatic Languages such as Chinese and couldn't of spread to North America. Additionally, comprehensible Arabic is not older that 1500 years old, after Islamic influence "unified" its dialects. (I know I have commented this like 10 times but it's still important)
as someone who speaks a sinitic language, I don’t think arabic has influenced it much, but southeastasian languages all have had similar influences from sinitic languages. sometimes abrahamic religious people tend to have a euroasian perspective on the world and forget that there’s more to just that part of the world. but I love arabic and it was still a nice video to watch :)

First of all, it’s pretty obvious you have never studied linguistics. Indo-European languages, such as Greek, Sanskrit, Russian, English and even Bulgarian come from Proto-Indo-European, not Arabic because there has been done a lot of comperative linguistic research on the protolanguage. It is true, that languages can borrow terms and words from other languages, which was shown in your video. However, it seems that you have cherry picked examples for your video and did not go into semantic and pragmatic meaning of the words you discussed. Arabic comes from its own family, from which Hebrew, Coptic and other Semitic languages derive. What you did was basically to take words that ‘sound’ similar to Arabic and it is not a valid evidence for concluding that all languages come from Arabic. I would like to know about how Chinese, Greenlandic, languages of Africa, South American languages, languages of Oceania share, according to you, the common ancestor of Arabic. The same logic that you have used could be applied to make the claim that it is Hebrew, that is the protolanguage. So far, this video seems to me as poorly researched and heavily biassed.
Welcome, I am very pleased and honored that this clip aroused your interest and passion and that you dedicated your valuable time to follow it. ______ First, we do not deny that European languages are derived from Proto-Indo-European. Second, Sanskrit is highly likely to be the mother of all Indo-European languages because it is very ancient and written, and it possesses numerous characteristics that make it one of the most complex languages in the world. It is more complex than Latin, Greek, and even Arabic. Your point about the need for further study is valid. However, Hebrew cannot be the mother of the Arabic language because Arabic is more complex, has a richer vocabulary, and its phonetic range is more diverse. I personally prefer to use the term "Aruvic languages" or "ancient Arabic language" instead of "Semitic languages" or "Proto-Semitic language" because the term "Sam" (Shem) is not mentioned in Islamic sources but is found in biblical sources, which we do not recognize as they are considered altered and corrupted. I do not deny that Standard Arabic has evolved over time, with the addition of the definite article "al," conjunctions, interrogative particles, and so forth. There are similarities between Semitic languages and Indo-European languages that warrant examination. It cannot be simply said that the similarities in vocabulary are merely due to borrowing because the contact between these languages was limited. It is likely that these words had a common origin. For example, there are limited similarities in vocabulary and grammar: The word "أُم" (mother) shares similarities with "mater" in Latin and "mother" in English. The Greek future marker "Θα" in "Θα γράψω" (tha grapso)(I will write) is similar to the Arabic future marker "س" in "سأكتب" (sa aktubu). The Greek word "Λογος" (logos) resembles the Arabic word "لغة" (language). "Κάλαμος" (kalamos) resembles "قلم" (pen). "φιλοσοφία" (philosophy) is similar to "فأل الصفا" (fa'al al-safa). "Στρατος" (stratos) resembles "الصراط" (al-sirat). Even in pronouns, "he," "heo," "hem" resemble the Arabic pronouns "هو" (huwa), "هي" (hiya), "هم" (hum). There are also morphological features and precise gender distinctions in both Aruvic languages and Indo-European languages that merit investigation. Specifically, between Arabic and Sanskrit, both languages contain a vast number of words and characteristics. As far as I know, Arabic has around 12 million words, and Sanskrit also has a large vocabulary. The video creator did not make a definitive claim but proposed a possibility. It's not necessary to accept it literally, but we should at least investigate the source of these similarities instead of dismissing them as mere coincidence. We should not deny the possibility of a deep connection between Aruvic languages and Indo-European languages.
I want to speak and add in English. Regarding the word "Arabic" (العربية), its root is derived from "أعرب" which means "to clarify" or "to explain." Therefore, "اللغة العربية" means "the clear language." In contrast, "اللغة العجمية" refers to foreign languages, as they were not clear or understandable to Arabs. Interestingly, the same root "عَرَبَ" is present in the Somali language as "carab," which means "tongue," as the tongue is the organ of expression and eloquence. It is also intriguing that the Latin-origin words like "language," "linguistics," and "sublingual medication" share a connection with the Arabic word "لسان" (tongue). It's no coincidence that these words start with the letter "L"! Arabs translate "the language" to "اللسان" (lisaan)(the tongue). Or "اللغة" ( lugat ) ( language) For instance, ﴿بِلِسانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُبينٍ﴾ [الشعراء: ١٩٥] (195) In a clear Arabic language. - English Translation of qoran. "بلسان عربي مبين" means "in clear Arabic language." The word "linguistics" translates to "لغويات" or "لسانيات" in Arabic. لغويات (lugawiyáat) لسانيات ( lisaaniyáat ) "Sub-lingual" translates to "تحت اللسان" (under the tongue). It can be said derivative " ِسُفْل اللسان " safl lisaan " The letter F may change its sound because its origin is close to the letter B, as in many languages. Additionally, it's not far-fetched to consider that the word "لغة" (language) might be derived from "اللغو" which means "speech." Since the tongue is the organ of speech, it's plausible that its use expanded and evolved in other languages to mean "tongue."

Of course, Arabic is indeed a beautiful, precise and eloquent language which can express far more clearly than English or French for example. But the other main reason the Quran was revealed in Arabic was because the people of Mecca spoke Arabic. That’s it. There is lots of proof for that, you just have to open the Quran. I’ll give you one example: “And thus we have revealed to you an Arabic Quran that you may warn the Mother of Cities [Mecca] and those around it and warn of the Day of Assembly, about which there is no doubt. A party will be in Paradise and a party in the Blaze.” Surat Al-Shura, Verse 7. There are many other examples like this
Sugar سکر is a Indo-Iranian word that ended up influencing a Simitic language that developing into Arabic which modified it, then Arabic spreading the word. It’s called word distribution.
Wildly inaccurate video with loads of mistakes. Very odd for this channel. European languages are indo-European and have practically no linguistic relation to Semitic languages like Arabic, beyond the existence of loan words. Also a language can have a significant percentage of words that are loan words from an unrelated language. Persian and Arabic are COMPLETELY different languages with different roots but Persian has a ton of Arabic loan words. “Tall” to choose *just one example* from this video comes from proto-Germanic Talez not an Arabic word. PS: if there was a connection between Arabic and Latin (and there isn’t) it would be the other way round as Greek and Roman culture had a huge influence on the northern Arabs . eg. The Nabatean architecture in Jordan and Saudi Arabia is based on Roman architecture but built by Arabs. Also before the arbs had their own alphabet they used other alphabets including the Greek alphabet. To suggest pre-Islamic Arabs influenced Latin makes no sense.
@@jaketwigg1065 Arabs as an identifiable group are at least 3000 years old ( based on Sumerian inscriptions). However the Arabic they spoke in all likelihood would have been quite different. Arabic became standardized on what we call Fus-ha with the advent of the A) Arabic script a century or so before Islam and B) the Quran. None of this lends any support to the ridiculous notion in the video. Many languages have Arabic loan words ( Farsi, Hindi, Urdu, Pashtu, Spanish, Portuguese, English ) but the claims of Germanic languages being Arabic in origin is just silly with no evidence to support that claim beyond “the current word in English sounds similar to the current word in Arabic “
@@jaketwigg1065 Arabic is not the most ancient language. Arabic descends from Proto-Semitic, which then descends from Proto-Afro Asiatic. There is no language that is identifiable as the first on earth.
Arabic belongs to the Semitic language group which again belongs to the Afroasiatic languages. Semitic probably spread out of Africa. "An origin [of proto-Afroasiatic] somewhere on the African continent has broad scholarly support,[65] and is seen as being well-supported by the linguistic data.[96] Most scholars more narrowly place the homeland near the geographic center of its present distribution,[18] "in the southeastern Sahara or adjacent Horn of Africa."[97] The Afroasiatic languages spoken in Africa are not more closely related to each other than they are to Semitic, as one would expect if only Semitic had remained in an West Asian homeland while all other branches had spread from there.[98] Likewise, all Semitic languages are fairly similar to each other, whereas the African branches of Afroasiatic are very diverse; this suggests the rapid spread of Semitic out of Africa.[65] Proponents of an origin of Afroasiatic within Africa assume the proto-language to have been spoken by pre-Neolithic hunter-gatherers,[92] arguing that there is no evidence of words in Proto-Afroasiatic related to agriculture or animal husbandry." Wikipedia, 'Afroasiatic languages'
This is based on the myth of evolution, no point in arguing with this, Muslims don't believe in it. Etymology is often based on assumption, and this video may or may not have gotten things right, but the fact Arabic either influenced or is the origin for many words in other languages is undeniable in any case.
@@azur9773 No, genetic evidence points to human populations emigrating from Africa over ten times further back in time than when the Afro-Asiatic language entered Arabia.
The word MEAN came from semitic معنى. See deep explanation on "The english and its semitic origin arabeclassique forum actif". There is another proves that semitic is the older language, because arabic kept the archetyps and etymas : the etymas are archaic arab roots, and the archetyps are the phones of the abjad, each letter has a meaning. The issue doing etymology, it's that PIE languages had lost some phones and invented new ones, like the P for the arabic B or F, or the latin T which could by a ط or a ت like in Tall ط and Tell ت.

16505 is about 75 percent of the allowable combinations of two and three letters if there are 28 to choose from and the first can't be doubled but the second can. 28×27×28+28×27=21924 Assuming Alif, ا, can't be one of the root letters, but hamsa can. I'm also assuming that waw, و, and yaa, ي, can be root letters. That means any non-Arabic word with two or three consonants has a high probability of having consonants sounding similar to Arabic just by coincidence. Some combinations may be difficult to pronounce and therefore avoided across different languages, increasing the probability. I'm not an Arabic speaker, so take what wrote about the number of possible roots with a grain of salt. I also read there are some 4 and 5 root letter words, but that those are rare.
This brother has taught us a lot of things about the Quran Recitation and Arabic language that we didn’t know so he is our teacher and we should respect him and if he has made any mistakes in this video or tried to teach us some “facts” about the “superiority” of Arabic language over other languages and made some mistakes then we should point them out with proof with due respect to him. Thanks.
I agree; Arabic is a unique and fascinating language just because of the facts we know beforehand (the most conservative Semitic language and still preserved today). However, the Arabic language cannot be used as a source to Indo-European languages; just the way they work when creating words (a root word system vs an agglutinating word system) are very different.
Although it feels like a stretch, I believe that Arabic has greatly impacted other languages due to the prolonged history of their dominance. Also, when we talk about language development, we should take into account that Arabic itself did not sound this way from the beginning of time. If you take a look at the languages trees we can actually trace when each language splits from the others. For instance Arabic, Hebrew and ancient egyptian all have a common ancestor language. Clearly shown by the shared sounds like خ and ح. On the other hand. Arabic was the language of the strongest people for a very long time thus, it influenced many words much how English is now the most important language and most new words come from english
I'm well aware of proto indian European, the possible reconstructions and proto semitic, and also the modern theory on these. But there's important and relevant claims, examples here. They need to be investigated and can't be accepted as is, but can't be dismissed either with research. For example, the claim on a large portion of the roots of Latin somehow matching those of Arabic needs a reference + more looking into
Because it is not true, it’s armchair research, it’s made up, NO ONE believes this. A random guy made it up. Look up the etymologies of the words presented in this video, and see for yourself. This video is shockingly shallow.
1:44 So, we use "rego", the 1st person singular present active indicative of the verb so that we can have something similiar to و , even though -o is the same ending on every verb in that form, but then we use "dicere", the present active infinitive, just to have something similar to the ر , even though -re is the same ending on every verb in that form....? Cherry-picking indeed. We could make the same video arguing for Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Egyptian, Sumerian, Sanskrit, or any Classical language.
Lol using this guy’s logic you could very easily make an argument for Arabic descending from Greek or Latin considering the amount of words Arabic has loaned from them. The sophistry in this video is crazy lmao
As a muslim (who is orthodox, studying the religion and tries to practice it completely), i can assure you that this is one of the worst takes ever, completely psuede-academically, totally lacking any root in the science of language etc. Its totally flawed and has zero sound evidences.

Further proof can be found in the hadith of Abu Hurairah عنهاللرضي in which he narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه و سلم said: “When Allah created Adam, He breathed the soul into him, then he sneezed and said: ‘Alhamdulillah.’ So he praised Allah by His permission. Then His Lord said to him: ‘May Allah have mercy upon you O Adam. Go to those angels - to that gathering of them sitting - so say: 'As-Salamu alaikum.' They said 'Wa Alaikas-Salamu Wa Rahmatullah’.

@Arabic101 Thanks the video. Arabic and Biblical Hebrew are very similar. Hebrew Bible has lots of Arabic words. "Bismillah", "Ayatollah", "Abdullah", "Muhammed", "Islam", Muslim", "Quran", "Hajj", "Masjid" are all Biblical Hebrew words. The Semitic words like Bismillah, Ayatollah are all Arabic but also Biblical Hebrew words. So the word like Ayatollah آیتالله Ayat + Allah (אוֹת + אַלָהּ ) is holy word for Christians, Jews and Muslims. Ayatollah means “Sign from G-d”.
Typhical of Semitic language included Arabic is every word have root, word سكر have no root on it, so it must borrowed from another language, it borrow from Sanskrit शर्कर (zarkara) and there are another 15 words for Sugar in Sanskrit, just advice you need learn Philology to understand all languages in the world, and there are also Sanskrit's words in AlQuran too, dont be Fanatic with Arabic language and finally make you blind, in Islam all Languages is Egality, no one language is superior than others and no one language is inferior than others, i am muslim too, open your mind and read alot of Literature bro 🤝🤝🤝🤝
The Quran is Arabic. The fact that some words in the Quran or names are not „originally“ Arabic does not make the Quran Inarabic. These words or names were known and used by the Arabs.
Fantastic video about the Arabic tongue perhaps being the original tongue of all languages. I'd like to add that not only Anglo-Saxon and Latin languages share roots with the Arabic tongue, I also noticed that Asian languages do too, for example, the Japanese language shares striking words with Arabic, like the word (sama) in Arabic, which means (sky, or something exalted or high) is the same word with a similar meaning in the Japanese language. Another example, the word (anta) in Arabic, which means (you) is the same in Japanese and has the same meaning, also, the word (yadd) in Arabic, which means (hand) is similar in pronunciation to the Japanese word (ude) which means (arm). I'm not a linguist but I have interest in the Arabic tongue and its relation to The Glorious Quran and other languages old and new, and I find it fascinating how numerous are the examples that point to The Arabic tongue being most likely the original tongue!
Factually your statement is illogical … there are literally languages and peoples more ancient than Arabic. Akkadian, Sumerian, Egyptian…and those three are only the languages with WRITTEN records. What we do know is that the first languages were spoken not written, so there are languages that are more ancient than the languages that are known to pre-date Arabic.
My statement is not illogical because I did not say the Arabic tongue is for a fact the original tongue of all languages, rather I said it perhaps and most likely is, and I'd given examples that support what I'm saying even with hard to relate with languages, like Japanese! In addition, what you've stated doesn't prove anything, because -and I'm sure you know this- at any moment, archeological discoveries can prove that Arabic is in fact older than all the languages you've mentioned, also, as for now, it is a fact that the Arabic tongue is way richer than all the languages you've mentioned, thus the fact that such archeological samples exist does not prove that those languages were older than Arabic or that Arabic did not exist before them. I don't know if you're a Muslim or not, but as a Muslim myself, and with the concrete evidence that The Glorious Quran is factual and truthful, I am standing on solid ground when it comes to discussing such a topic, an even more solid ground than any academic studies and research. With good intentions, I invite you to study The Glorious Quran and the Arabic tongue, then I'm positive you'll notice the numerous observations that make the Arabic tongue a superior candidate for an original tongue, because at the end of the day, there has to be an original tongue that all languages came from either directly or indirectly.@@SomeofThisSomeofThat
@@Abu7asan27 Again, your curiosity to consider whether Arabic is the oldest language is unfounded and quite literally makes no sense. Ill never understand why the world around white-washes or brown-washes human history when time after time after time all evidence points towards Sub-Saharan Africans being the first peoples. Maybe you should look to the original people and explore their languages. Then maybe you’ll find the original language…but you certainly wont find the answer from somebody whose bias is to prove Arabic as the “original” language. Arabic is an Afro-Semetic language particularly from the Semetic branch which is pre-dated by the Afro branch. The Afro branch found in the Horn of Africa is pre-dated by African languages the further south in Africa you travel. Khoisan languages with the clicks consonants are estimated to be 60,000 years old.
Guys please watch the video before jumping to conclusions lol, although not all of the information here is accurate, the channel doesn't claim Arabic is the original language, he just wanted to share a theory by a researcher. Many languages in the world have been proposed to be the "original" language.
yeah the theory is usually referred to as proto-world. meaning a reconstructed language that branches into all languages we have today. claiming that Arabic in its current standard form is the same language as proto-world makes little sense given the changes that all languages inevitably go through. Arabic, too, surely underwent many changes before and after its standardization. It could be argued that most word roots from proto-world were preserved and passed down in Arabic though, under the assumption that the proto-world theory is correct
The video is trying to claim all languages come from Arabic. Which makes no sense considering the fact that there must have been a language before Arabic. Each language has a specific time period; it is impossible to keep a language alive without changing it unless it is only kept alive as a written language (which is the case with both Fusha Arabic and Latin, for example). The time period for spoken Fusha Arabic is approx. 600-800 AD and if you count Old Arabic which is a different language(s) the time period goes back to maybe 900 BC. It is clear that the author has heavily studied Arabic and has a great deal of appreciation for the language, but it doesn't seem like he has studied Philology, which is needed to understand a topic such as this one. Word cognates are expected to be found across most languages in the world, whether all languages come from the same source or not. Trace back Arabic far enough, and you get Proto-Afro-Asiatic, which the "oldest" reconstructed language in the world, in other words the oldest language known to exist. Look into that language instead of saying "Arabic is the oldest language". Think about it, if every language comes from the same source, then it logically follows that EVERY language in the world is the oldest language. You guys haven't studied this and it really shows. Maybe read about it before taking some guy's personal fringe theory as truth. Islam never claims that Arabic is the original language of humanity btw. If you believe that every language came from the same source, then every language that exists today is some kind of dialect of that original language, including Arabic. This is no "neutral hate", this is Philology. Have any of you studied Philology?
If you read the origin of language, a lot of words of modern language are borrowed from Arabic but Arabic is also derived from Aramaic. Arabic started to become popular in early 2nd Century AD. Let's stick to more scientific approach. Let's keep Quran separate from unsupported arguments. The language used in Quran and its stylometry is beyond human comprehension.
Aramaic and Arabic both developed separately as part of the semitic language group- Arabic didn’t descend from Aramaic. However, I agree with the rest of what you said. Arabic isn’t the originator of all languages and no modern linguist Muslim or non Muslim would support that idea.
Arabic and Latin alphabets both stem from the Phoenician alphabet. With the amount of English spoken in so many languages around the world, therefore we can conclude English is the source of all languages. Is the person who made this video mentally ill?
English isn't the mother/original source of all languages, English wasn't created before Phoenician, Arabic nor greek, actually. I forgot what is the original language or first recorded language in ge history. (maybe the sumerian, Babylonian, or others)

My dear brother, i hold your tajweed, quran, and arabic grammer in the highest of esteem. If i doubt a certaon pronounciation in quran, i refer to you since it is clear to me that you have mastered this science beautifully and are very trustworthy and knowledgable in this matter. Having said that, it is a known fact that both anglo saxon and latin as well as french, russian, persian, pashto, hindi, bengali and thousands of others are indo european languages originating north of the black sea and central asia, whereas arabic, hebrew, somali, hausa, amazigh, and all these are afro asiatic, altogether unrelated to indo european, uralic, bantu, turkic, and other language families. Arabic is the most beautiful language in my opinion, since it is the language of the quran, and the prophes sallallahu alayhi wasallam and the three favored gereations radillah anhum, and no other can match its depth, eloquence, and beaty but that does not mean it is the oldest. Please, be either more thorough or truthfull, whichever is lacking in this video. Understand we value your content specifically because it is great quality, close detail, authentic, and you are knowledgable in this, so when you make these kinds of rediculous claims, it does not benefit either you nor us, so that disbelievers do not think of us as fools.

The video makes no sense to anyone with even a basic understanding of linguistics
I'm sorry your degree didn't teach you how to think, because the video is very easy to understand. Sadly sometimes PHDs cripple the mind.
This video has inaccuracies.
أرجو (I request, I hope) does not mean "rego" (to rule, to guide)
كنس (to hide/to retreat/to sweep) does not mean "cinis" (ashes, embers, ruin, destruction)
نقص (to decrease) does not mean "necesse" (necessary, needed)
Anglo-Saxon
ورى (creation, to kindle) does not mean "wara" (an inhabitant, to care, to guard)
هون (easy) does not mean "hwon" (a few, a little)
ورد (watering hole) does not mean "wyrt" (plant, vegetable, herb)
English
صنح (cymbal, harp) does not mean "song"
هب (thinking, to move suddenly) does not mean "hop"
رج (to shake) does not mean "rock"
...
75% of Latin verb roots and 80% of Anglo-Saxon verbs does not have Arabic origins. Latin and Anglo-Saxon have distinct roots in the Indo-European family, while Arabic belongs to the Afroasiatic family. Arabic has influenced European languages through trade and cultural exchanges, but not to this extent.
The word "سكر" (sugar), cited as an example in the video, originates from Middle Persian (𐭱𐭪𐭥), which, in turn, derives from the Sanskrit word "शर्करा." Like all languages, Arabic has borrowed words from other languages, a process that is a natural part of linguistic evolution. Arabic isn't unique in this regard, as linguistic exchange is a universal phenomenon.
The claim that words stem from Arabic instead of Latin due to the greater number of Arabic roots is logically flawed. A language having more roots doesn't imply that specific words in another language originated from it. Language development is complex, involving various influences that cannot be explained by sheer volume alone; historical interactions, trade, and cultural exchanges play a crucial role.
As Muslims, we need to move beyond the idea of Arabic or Arab superiority. Arabic is a language like any other, not inherently more divine. If Allah willed, the Quran could have been revealed in any language, just as easily. To claim that Arabic was uniquely necessary for this purpose undermines Allah's boundless power.
You must be the funniest in a party, what you here said IS ALSO A THEORY. I don't know if you understand how etymology works and that everything is based mainly on suppositions because we don't have text that goes back to pre-history. He literally just showed another theory with its proofs, just say that you are an Arab hater.
@@Omroqurba Please let me know how I am an "Arab hater" for saying Arabs aren't superior to other Muslims and if the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was also an "Arab hater" for saying, "Verily there is no superiority of an Arab over a non-Arab or of a non-Arab over an Arab..." Ahmad (22978).

@@MixtureGuyWhat you say is true! In the video he neglects that fact that Arabic is a member of the Afro-Asiatic Indo Arabian language family. This means that it is a Semitic Language related to Hebrew and Syriac languages. This part of the map was a crossway for the world, affecting many African, Central/South Asian and European languages. However, this language has pretty much no affect on Sino Asiatic Languages such as Chinese and couldn't of spread to North America. Additionally, comprehensible Arabic is not older that 1500 years old, after Islamic influence "unified" its dialects.
@@Omroqurbaokay first of all just because he said it’s a theory does not absolve him from critiques of this theory, and that does not allow him to blatantly lie about things in order to support it
"Tall" didn't mean tall until about 500 years ago.
Its similarity to an Arabic word is probably coincidental. Though one can speculate whether the change in meaning was influenced by Arabic.
"The sense of "being of more than average height (and slim in proportion to height)" probably evolved out of earlier meanings "brave, valiant, seemly, proper" (c. 1400), "attractive, handsome" (late 14c.), also "large, big" (mid-14c.), as sometimes in Modern English, colloquially.
The sense evolution is "remarkable," says OED (1989), but it notes that adjectives applied to persons can wander far in meaning (such as pretty, buxom, German klein "small, little," which in Middle High German meant the same as its English cognate clean (adj.))."

Altus (height) is a latin word, from arabic Al-tul الطول, which gave us alto in spanish. In sanscrit we have uttAla with the same meaning, at-tula. الطول.

You are talking specifically about the connection between Arabic and European languages. A lot of Asian, African, Aboriginal and Native American languages have nothing to do with Arabic.

Brother, with all due respect, this video is misleading. You can believe that Arabic is a wonderful language, and acknowledge the ways in which it has heavily contributed to the vocabularies of many languages, while still being scientific about this.
Firstly, every language changes. Every single one. Arabic included. Arabic as it was 1400 years ago itself was the product of millenia of changes, as is every other language. Contribution of loaned vocabulary words IS NOT the same as being the "source language" of another tongue. That's why the Persian language, for all its Arabic loans, is incomprehensible to an Arab who doesnt speak Persian. Language is more than vocabulary. It's a system that is made up of syntax rules, morphology/grammar, and phonology. Vocabulary is one portion of the system.
Also, this completely goes out of the window when you compare Arabic to any Sinitic language, any Andean language - basically, anywhere not in contact with Muslims or Romans.
The internet is filled with this sort of pseudoscience. The guy cites one obscure book by an unknown author. These people do a disservice to Arabic by making such outlandish claims. Stick to tajweed I say. Don't try to branch out into the science of linguistics if you know nothing about it.
11:04 although I agree it is a bit misleading, he also says it's just a theory, so he recognizes that this is not 100% true. Rather, I would say he is just trying to share the amazing similarities of Arabic in other languages
@@gloryjudgement7563 No, he's lying.
@@GHasBack What is he lying about? I don't think Arabic is the Origin but I do know that it is older than claimed and even before it was Arabic it was something else with the same roots. Syriac, Semetic, Aramiac, Egyptian....etc. Same language, same culture.
@@mohammadawyan5236 So, that's not true either. But you yourself are saying the video is lying, so I don't know what explanation you want...
Whoa the Arab superiority complex is strong. With all due respect, it’s dumb to suggest Adam spoke Arabic. There are languages that have written records that are older than Arabic - Akkadian, Sumerian, Egyptian and those are only the WRITTEN languages. Arabic is one of many AFRO-Semitic languages. Emphasis on AFRO…AFRICAN. The first languages were spoken not written. There are African civilizations that exist today who have been speaking their languages before Arabic was thought of. Stop the lies and propaganda.
This video is misleading. I am a Muslim. Islam doesn't support Arab supremacy. He probably brainwashed by some affiliated ignorant. But besides this I want to ask you what do you think about the language of Ad Samud who were Arabs before Ismail Alaihisalam? What do think about their language how old that would be ?
Furthermore, it is known there are only 4 Arab prophets. If the first language was Arabic, wouldn’t Adam (as) be considered an Arab prophet?
Nope. This video does not suggest that Adam speaks Arabic. Arabic only came from Mesopotamia~Aramaic~Hebrew Koine.
Timeline Arab came from Ishmael, from Abraham, ANYWAY.
40% of words that are used in my language today are either Arabic or from Arabic root. And not just similarity, they are literally same words. Also, we're only counting ones used in modern days not the whole 14 centuries.

@@Krassertyp7 I think that is my language which is somali
Probably because your language is semitic, or spoken by people who are muslims, and have been for a long time. YOUR CLAIM PROVES NOTHING!!! The claims presented in this video are OUTLANDISH and not backed up by ANY sources.
Maltese?
I'm gonna guess Turkish
This video seems to completely neglect the development of the English language. For example, look up the etymology of the word "tall" - late Middle English: probably from Old English getæl ‘swift, prompt’. Early senses also included ‘fine, handsome’ and ‘bold, strong, good at fighting’.
It's very unscientific to take the modern definition of a word and compare it to classical Arabic whilst ignoring the history of the word and how it has evolved and the meaning has changed.
The methodolgy is all over the place. You accept the modern meaning of "tall", but you go have to old German for "Harbour". And even this denies that the habour is traced back to two words harjaz, meaning army, and bergo, meaning protection. I can't find a reference for "hunan Berg" This is the definition of cherry picking.
Not to mention that Classical Arabic itself has its own history, with other semitic languages like Hebrew and Akkadian having a far earlier attestation.
Any meaningful analysis would have to take place at the level of the proto languages.
Just because things are similar that doesn't mean they are related.
Sorry to say, but this video flies in the face of literally everything we know about linguistics.
Allah knows best.
Nop. You just show you believe the western etymologists whom invented the PIE. I made etymologic investigation, and many proves that linguists of the 19th century made speculations without root. One thing important to keep in mind : the words are borrowed, so we don't know when "Tall" came in english, it could be in the 14th century, when jews were expelled from Spain, and reached netherland and later on england. So my point here : the protosemitic langue is the source of the PIE. I wrote many articles for demonstrations, going deeper than this video. The word Earth is semitic : أرض. Try to deny :)
@@victoremman4639 The claim that a tiny immigrant population of Jews could have influenced the majority of farming peasants in Western Europe to start using the words "earth" or "tall", something that they would have used on a daily basis, is frankly, absurd, especially when you consider that the Sephardic Jews themselves didn't speak Hebrew as a daily language. But feel free to demonstrate, using textual evidence, the evolution of these words from Ladino into Dutch and or English.

Although Arabic is a very beautiful and rich ancient language, especially Quranic Arabic, which has influenced many other languages, it couldn't be the case that all other languages originated somehow from Arabic, because the Arabic language can't be older than the prophet Ibrahim or Ismail pbut and from modern historical science we know that these prophets lived approximately 5000 - 5500 years ago. Moreover, even when the prophet Ibrahim left Mesopotamia (Iraq) for Palestine, he spoke the language of his fathers, the Mesopotamian language, which is different from ancient Arabic of the times of prophet Muhammad pbuh or ancient Hebrew of the prophets Musah and Harun pbut.
Yes I also believe that the origin of language is far older than Arabic and it may no longer exists now, and that doesn't lower my respect toward Arabic as the language of Qur'an
No
Who told you arabic is not ancient or that it didnt exist before the time of ismail peace be upon him?
Jarham , the first arabic *tribe* to live in makka , after asking permission from hajar , the mother ismail himself , jarham was speaking arabic (an ancient way of arabic that died eventually) and ismail learned it from them
Also , there was Thamod and A'ad (with the mighty city of Erum), two great people of arabia who existed well before ibrahim ,Erum itself was mentioned by Phoenicians almost 10 thousands years ago , theyre known btween arabs as the "arab bae'dah" or extinct arabs, theyre the forefathers of arab civilization and theyre ethnic arab
Fyi , arabs are divided into 2 categories, 3 are subcategories:
1)arab ba'edah or "extinct arabs" (extinct arab tribes like A'ad, Thamod, and the nabatians)....
2)arab arebah or "arab arabs" (the arab tribes who still live to this day and age, those who can trace their lineage back to known ancient arab tribes) those too are ethnic arabs who the language was born in their communities and civilization
2) arab musta'arebah or "arabnized arabs" the arabs that werent ethnic arabs but their mother language is arab, like alot of people in north africa or some minorities in different areas around the arab world ... Being an ethnic arab or an arabnized arab doesnt really make a difference tho , scholars argue that if your mother tongue is arabic , then youre an arab , regardless of your lineage
@@someone_7233 as far as I know Arabs consider themselves as descendants of prophet Ismail pbuh and his twelve sons. If so, how could his ancestors be Arabs and speak Arabic? Those ancient nations you mentioned were not Arabs, but nations who lived in the Arabic peninsula or in the Middle East. Maybe their languages were close to later Arabic, but those languages were not Arabic. Don't be like Jews who claim that prophets Ibrahim, Nuh, and Adam pbut were Jews and spoke Hebrew. Probably, all Sematic languages originated from the language of Mesopotamia, where prophet Ibrahim pbuh was born and grew up.
As far as i know, Ibrahim was praying in Quran " i settle my offspring in the uncultivated valley, close to your sacred house, ... Make people's hearts turn to them." This means there was tribe live near that Area, that was the Arab Musta'ribah
@@flowerinkplant it doesn’t mean it was a tribe there. Prophet Ismail’s mother couldn’t find any water in the area for a while and ran between the tops of two hills Safa and Marua to see if there any water sources in the area, while the baby was crying. At that time, prophet Ibrahim pbuh had already moved to the modern Palestinian land from modern Iraqi land, and he was quite old. When his second son, prophet Ishaq (Isaak) was born, he was too old.
This is a bit over the top in my opinion (im arab by the way), the reason of similarities could be that in the golden age of islam baghdad (the capital of iraq) was the place for science and everything was written in arabic back then so the students in every part in the world used to travel to baghdad and translate books to transfer the knowledge to their country, and over time they got affected by some vocabularies (not everything could be tranlated) and it develobed overtime to become actual words
Similar to whats happening now in the arab world we use lots of english words in our daily speech because everything now in English and anyone who wants to get education he must know english and some of these words actually made it to the formal language like "Computer" = "كومبيوتر" (i know this isn't a good example)

Finally, you seem to ignore all the arguments used in this video to justify these reflections (such as the historical facts with the Turkish texts which have changed over time, passing to the origin of Arabic, or the origin of word harbour with the invasions of the United Kingdom by the Vikings, which supported the fact that harbour came from hunan burj, or the fact that Arabic has more than 16,000 roots while other languages have 20 at 8 times less, or the interpretation of certain verses of the Qur'An or the names of Adam, his wives and his children which have letters exclusive to the Arabic language and so on etc...)

*As linguist in both languages with native mastery, I gotta tell you the examples of the similar words is shocking and in no way mere coincidence. If as far away geographically German and Indian languages were decided by scholars to be related under the Indio-European language because they share similar root words, I don’t understand why Arabic, Latin or Anglo-Saxon can’t be related when they’re relatively closer geographically? There should be a new family of languages called Semito-European or Arabico-European. The only issue you have in this video is that you injected it with religion near the end. You should’ve kept religion out as that can create a controversy.😉*
If Arabic was the original language that all others derived from, this video should hold true for ALL languages. Instead, it only applies to languages whose speakers historically had contact with Arabs. But this doesn't apply to others like Native American languages, or the languages of the far east like Korean and Japanese.
A much better explanation is that the observations in the video are a result of a mix of cultural exchange and coincidence.
Arabic has had a huge influence on the vocabulary of many languages around the world, but this video is highly misleading in promoting a pseudoscientific hypothesis on the origin of Indo-European languages that is not based in sound historical linguistic methodology.
I encourage anyone watching to read up on the vast world of historical linguistics and the comparative methods that allow us to reconstruct the relationships between languages. Nationalist and religious movements have a long history of promoting their favored language as the origin of all others, but you are missing out on the fruits of an incredibly interesting field if you elevate these "theories" to the same level of centuries of critical, evidence-based investigation.

I'm an asian learning arabic and this is true. I'm so impressed by how easy for me to learn Arabic since many of the word seems could be related to my own language.
Latin and Arabic belong to two completely different language groups; Indoeuropean and Semitic, respectively.
you mean afroasiatic?
@@ErenAlpErtem Yes. Semitic is a subgroup within the Afroasiatic language family. I found out after posting and wrote some comments about it.
Proto Latin and proto Semetic shared the same root, as do all languages on their timelines. This theory is wrong, however. Islamic history even accounts for the development of Arabic from proto-Semetic by naming a man y3rob يعرب as the first to speak Arabic, descended from Qahtan who was the origin of the Arab ethnicity within Semetic peoples.
Just as it accounted for how languages developed over time, Islamic history here also accounts for how ethnicities as social structures arise over time. The lineage of the prophet Muhammad for example is مستغرب meaning Arabized since the paternal lineage of the Quraysh is traced to Ismaiil, who was from the loins of Abraham and settled among the Arabs becoming Arabized.
Arabic has certainly changed less over time because of the Quran and the cultural value of eloquence pre-Islam prepared the language as a medium for revalation. The ayah that he mentioned where Adam was taught all names, which then became the basis for all languages is most correct.
Allahu 'Alam
@@Satoshi-yd7lj Latin is Indoeuropean. The common origin of the Indoeuropean goes back around 6000 years (+-).
Arabic probably didn't exist back then.
Semitic is a sub-group within the Afroasiatic languages.
@@Satoshi-yd7lj Languages change so fast that shared origins of major families beyond several thousand years is difficult or impossible to determine from similarities, because some similarities could be entirely coincidental.
I was watching a young autistic boy in the Muslim faith who was raised watching and reading the Quran.. now he is a master of the Quran he might still ? Display autistic tendencies...but he is an excellent teacher on the Quran. I could not help but be fascinated over the fact that if everyone in the world was given a Quran to learn in their own language as well as in Arabic we could all learn the same language based on our knowledge of the same words. On top of this the Arabic language or the Quran look like sheet music have specific tones and amounts of specific beats to be enunciated. What a beautiful learning experience school could be if you learn the Quran and then went to music and then went to science or art or anything else that you had to do how you would embace everything in the language of God. SUBHANALLAH
Musical instruments are Haram by the way
@@youarethecssformyhtml that would go for the voice also.. from what I've read it said that as long as the music is upright and righteous it is okay
@larsapher , الس لا ام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركته.
The hadith is clear in prohibition of musical instruments in general without any specification about truthfulness or piety of the music they are used for.
Also the narrations from sahabah regarding the Quranic verse are clear.
Also the speech of people of knowledge states the same fact, that musical instruments and music are prohobited. And some big scholars of madhahib even said that to say, that music is halal - is a disbelief. And Allah knows best.
May allah bless you, my brother. Be aware of such sources that make it permissible to listen to any music.
[There is only one exception for one specific musical instrument in one specific situation]
@ibn_abdirrahman what I did find was conflicting because it said that drums were considered okay tambourines were considered okay violin was considered okay if appropriate and pleasurable music as long as it was righteous and upright and not against the morals which much music in the west is negative and derogatory that is easy to see why it is around celebratory music I'm very vague .I will guess God will forgive us for dancing and enjoying music if we ask for it🙏🏿inshallah
"From the very beginning of Indo-European studies, there have been attempts to link the Indo-European languages genealogically to other languages and language families. However, these theories remain highly controversial, and most specialists in Indo-European linguistics are skeptical or agnostic about such proposals."

While 70% similarity is significant, it doesn't necessarily imply that anglo-saxon or latin originated from Arabic. It could just be that both share a common ancestor. Same with Adam's language. Albeit, Arabic might be closer to that original language than anglo-saxon, given the age. In ancient Egypt the name of the first woman translates to: she who lives, which is the literal translation of the word "Hawa'a" in Arabic. Hebrew and Arabic sharing the same ancestor, is also another clue, for a proto-semitic language, from which Indo-European languages could've branched.
Nice input.
Anyway Arab only existed after the Ishmael era. The language may travel through here from Abraham, from Mesopotamia~Indus Valley

I am an Arab, and a Muslim. No, Arabic is not the original language. Sure, Arabic is old, very old. But, it’s not the original language because it didn’t give rise to Indo-European languages, Sinitic languages, Navajo, Bantu etc. All of these are either loanwords or words that just so happened to sound similar.
The harbour examples annoys me a lot because harbour comes from the Proto-Germanic words, harjaz ( army ) and bergō ( protection ) and it isn’t related to Arabic at all.
The Arabic word سكر has no root, as it’s not a native Arabic word. It was borrowed from Sanskrit. Other words like موز and فيل also aren’t native to Arabic at all!

@@starlonga i cant see what my original comment said so i am unsure what ur talking about due to my poor memory but it is still a theory with some claims and facts but u don't have to accept it.
@Arabic 101 This is a very flawed claim: Three major problems: 1. having more root words does not make a language the source of another language with lesser roots.. a language that has been influenced by multiple other languages will also have many roots and often those roots have similar meaning, example; English being influenced by Romance (latin) and Germanic (anglo-saxon) has more roots than either. 2. Why no mention of years, places and time periods when discussing language history (etmology) the oldest evidence of the existence of arabic is not much before Islam.. Arabic belongs to the Semitic group of languages of which Aramaic and Hebrew are much older. Semitic languages themselves belong to Afro-Asiatic languages which are much older and have been the origin for many languages across Africa. 3. The words with similarity to english have developed less than two thousand years back and mainly after the Islamic conquests and via Arab traders. If Arabic is the origin of these languages why are there no words before these influencing events??
In the video he neglects that fact that Arabic is a member of the Afro-Asiatic Indo Arabian language family. This means that it is a Semitic Language related to Hebrew and Syriac languages. This part of the map was a crossway for the world, affecting many African, Central/South Asian and European languages. However, this language has pretty much no affect on Sino Asiatic Languages such as Chinese and couldn't of spread to North America. Additionally, comprehensible Arabic is not older that 1500 years old, after Islamic influence "unified" its dialects. (I know I have commented this like 10 times but it's still important)
The oldest evidence of Arabic/Arabs are the Aad and Thamud
It's true, many words in Spanish came from Arabic :
Café, azúcar , alcohol, aceite, albahaca, etc.
as someone who speaks a sinitic language, I don’t think arabic has influenced it much, but southeastasian languages all have had similar influences from sinitic languages. sometimes abrahamic religious people tend to have a euroasian perspective on the world and forget that there’s more to just that part of the world. but I love arabic and it was still a nice video to watch :)

bro trying to take mat pat's niche
First of all, it’s pretty obvious you have never studied linguistics. Indo-European languages, such as Greek, Sanskrit, Russian, English and even Bulgarian come from Proto-Indo-European, not Arabic because there has been done a lot of comperative linguistic research on the protolanguage. It is true, that languages can borrow terms and words from other languages, which was shown in your video. However, it seems that you have cherry picked examples for your video and did not go into semantic and pragmatic meaning of the words you discussed. Arabic comes from its own family, from which Hebrew, Coptic and other Semitic languages derive. What you did was basically to take words that ‘sound’ similar to Arabic and it is not a valid evidence for concluding that all languages come from Arabic. I would like to know about how Chinese, Greenlandic, languages of Africa, South American languages, languages of Oceania share, according to you, the common ancestor of Arabic. The same logic that you have used could be applied to make the claim that it is Hebrew, that is the protolanguage. So far, this video seems to me as poorly researched and heavily biassed.
Welcome, I am very pleased and honored that this clip aroused your interest and passion and that you dedicated your valuable time to follow it.

First, we do not deny that European languages are derived from Proto-Indo-European.
Second, Sanskrit is highly likely to be the mother of all Indo-European languages because it is very ancient and written, and it possesses numerous characteristics that make it one of the most complex languages in the world. It is more complex than Latin, Greek, and even Arabic.
Your point about the need for further study is valid.
However, Hebrew cannot be the mother of the Arabic language because Arabic is more complex, has a richer vocabulary, and its phonetic range is more diverse.
I personally prefer to use the term "Aruvic languages" or "ancient Arabic language" instead of "Semitic languages" or "Proto-Semitic language" because the term "Sam" (Shem) is not mentioned in Islamic sources but is found in biblical sources, which we do not recognize as they are considered altered and corrupted.
I do not deny that Standard Arabic has evolved over time, with the addition of the definite article "al," conjunctions, interrogative particles, and so forth.
There are similarities between Semitic languages and Indo-European languages that warrant examination. It cannot be simply said that the similarities in vocabulary are merely due to borrowing because the contact between these languages was limited. It is likely that these words had a common origin.
For example, there are limited similarities in vocabulary and grammar:
The word "أُم" (mother) shares similarities with "mater" in Latin and "mother" in English.
The Greek future marker "Θα" in "Θα γράψω" (tha grapso)(I will write) is similar to the Arabic future marker "س" in "سأكتب" (sa aktubu).
The Greek word "Λογος" (logos) resembles the Arabic word "لغة" (language).
"Κάλαμος" (kalamos) resembles "قلم" (pen).
"φιλοσοφία" (philosophy) is similar to "فأل الصفا" (fa'al al-safa).
"Στρατος" (stratos) resembles "الصراط" (al-sirat).
Even in pronouns, "he," "heo," "hem" resemble the Arabic pronouns "هو" (huwa), "هي" (hiya), "هم" (hum).
There are also morphological features and precise gender distinctions in both Aruvic languages and Indo-European languages that merit investigation.
Specifically, between Arabic and Sanskrit, both languages contain a vast number of words and characteristics. As far as I know, Arabic has around 12 million words, and Sanskrit also has a large vocabulary.
The video creator did not make a definitive claim but proposed a possibility. It's not necessary to accept it literally, but we should at least investigate the source of these similarities instead of dismissing them as mere coincidence. We should not deny the possibility of a deep connection between Aruvic languages and Indo-European languages.
I want to speak and add in English.
Regarding the word "Arabic" (العربية), its root is derived from "أعرب" which means "to clarify" or "to explain." Therefore, "اللغة العربية" means "the clear language." In contrast, "اللغة العجمية" refers to foreign languages, as they were not clear or understandable to Arabs.
Interestingly, the same root "عَرَبَ" is present in the Somali language as "carab," which means "tongue," as the tongue is the organ of expression and eloquence.
It is also intriguing that the Latin-origin words like "language," "linguistics," and "sublingual medication" share a connection with the Arabic word "لسان" (tongue).
It's no coincidence that these words start with the letter "L"!
Arabs translate "the language" to "اللسان" (lisaan)(the tongue). Or "اللغة" ( lugat ) ( language)
For instance,
﴿بِلِسانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ مُبينٍ﴾ [الشعراء: ١٩٥]
(195) In a clear Arabic language.
- English Translation of qoran.
"بلسان عربي مبين" means "in clear Arabic language."
The word "linguistics" translates to "لغويات" or "لسانيات" in Arabic.
لغويات (lugawiyáat)
لسانيات ( lisaaniyáat )
"Sub-lingual" translates to
"تحت اللسان" (under the tongue).
It can be said derivative
" ِسُفْل اللسان " safl lisaan "
The letter F may change its sound because its origin is close to the letter B, as in many languages.
Additionally, it's not far-fetched to consider that the word "لغة" (language) might be derived from "اللغو" which means "speech." Since the tongue is the organ of speech, it's plausible that its use expanded and evolved in other languages to mean "tongue."
everytime I watch a new video about arabic language makes me love it even more, and I used to love english more even so arabic is my mother language

What he said is true. Of course, Arabic is indeed a beautiful, precise and eloquent language which can express far more clearly than English or French for example.
But the other main reason the Quran was revealed in Arabic was because the people of Mecca spoke Arabic. That’s it. There is lots of proof for that, you just have to open the Quran.
I’ll give you one example: “And thus we have revealed to you an Arabic Quran that you may warn the Mother of Cities [Mecca] and those around it and warn of the Day of Assembly, about which there is no doubt. A party will be in Paradise and a party in the Blaze.”
Surat Al-Shura, Verse 7.

Wildly inaccurate video with loads of mistakes. Very odd for this channel. European languages are indo-European and have practically no linguistic relation to Semitic languages like Arabic, beyond the existence of loan words. Also a language can have a significant percentage of words that are loan words from an unrelated language. Persian and Arabic are COMPLETELY different languages with different roots but Persian has a ton of Arabic loan words. “Tall” to choose *just one example* from this video comes from proto-Germanic Talez not an Arabic word.
PS: if there was a connection between Arabic and Latin (and there isn’t) it would be the other way round as Greek and Roman culture had a huge influence on the northern Arabs . eg. The Nabatean architecture in Jordan and Saudi Arabia is based on Roman architecture but built by Arabs. Also before the arbs had their own alphabet they used other alphabets including the Greek alphabet. To suggest pre-Islamic Arabs influenced Latin makes no sense.

Arabic belongs to the Semitic language group which again belongs to the Afroasiatic languages. Semitic probably spread out of Africa.
"An origin [of proto-Afroasiatic] somewhere on the African continent has broad scholarly support,[65] and is seen as being well-supported by the linguistic data.[96] Most scholars more narrowly place the homeland near the geographic center of its present distribution,[18] "in the southeastern Sahara or adjacent Horn of Africa."[97] The Afroasiatic languages spoken in Africa are not more closely related to each other than they are to Semitic, as one would expect if only Semitic had remained in an West Asian homeland while all other branches had spread from there.[98] Likewise, all Semitic languages are fairly similar to each other, whereas the African branches of Afroasiatic are very diverse; this suggests the rapid spread of Semitic out of Africa.[65] Proponents of an origin of Afroasiatic within Africa assume the proto-language to have been spoken by pre-Neolithic hunter-gatherers,[92] arguing that there is no evidence of words in Proto-Afroasiatic related to agriculture or animal husbandry."

This is based on the myth of evolution, no point in arguing with this, Muslims don't believe in it.

The issue doing etymology, it's that PIE languages had lost some phones and invented new ones, like the P for the arabic B or F, or the latin T which could by a ط or a ت like in Tall ط and Tell ت.

I’m an Iraqi Arab and I don’t think Arabic is the source of all languages cus Arabic isn’t even the oldest Semitic language Akkadian is the oldest one and all Semitic languages came from a proto Semitic language that Noah and his sons spoke
16505 is about 75 percent of the allowable combinations of two and three letters if there are 28 to choose from and the first can't be doubled but the second can. 28×27×28+28×27=21924
Assuming Alif, ا, can't be one of the root letters, but hamsa can. I'm also assuming that waw, و, and yaa, ي, can be root letters.
That means any non-Arabic word with two or three consonants has a high probability of having consonants sounding similar to Arabic just by coincidence. Some combinations may be difficult to pronounce and therefore avoided across different languages, increasing the probability.
I'm not an Arabic speaker, so take what wrote about the number of possible roots with a grain of salt.
I also read there are some 4 and 5 root letter words, but that those are rare.

I agree; Arabic is a unique and fascinating language just because of the facts we know beforehand (the most conservative Semitic language and still preserved today). However, the Arabic language cannot be used as a source to Indo-European languages; just the way they work when creating words (a root word system vs an agglutinating word system) are very different.
there no fact about a language superiority he made a very outlandish video he has a lot of baises and that very disrespectful to non arabs

Although it feels like a stretch, I believe that Arabic has greatly impacted other languages due to the prolonged history of their dominance. Also, when we talk about language development, we should take into account that Arabic itself did not sound this way from the beginning of time. If you take a look at the languages trees we can actually trace when each language splits from the others. For instance Arabic, Hebrew and ancient egyptian all have a common ancestor language. Clearly shown by the shared sounds like خ and ح. On the other hand. Arabic was the language of the strongest people for a very long time thus, it influenced many words much how English is now the most important language and most new words come from english

They need to be investigated and can't be accepted as is, but can't be dismissed either with research. For example, the claim on a large portion of the roots of Latin somehow matching those of Arabic needs a reference + more looking into
Just a note, Indo-Semitic is a real consideration though not mainstream.
Really
Because it is not true, it’s armchair research, it’s made up, NO ONE believes this. A random guy made it up. Look up the etymologies of the words presented in this video, and see for yourself. This video is shockingly shallow.
1:44 So, we use "rego", the 1st person singular present active indicative of the verb so that we can have something similiar to و , even though -o is the same ending on every verb in that form, but then we use "dicere", the present active infinitive, just to have something similar to the ر , even though -re is the same ending on every verb in that form....? Cherry-picking indeed. We could make the same video arguing for Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Egyptian, Sumerian, Sanskrit, or any Classical language.
Lol using this guy’s logic you could very easily make an argument for Arabic descending from Greek or Latin considering the amount of words Arabic has loaned from them.
The sophistry in this video is crazy lmao
As a muslim (who is orthodox, studying the religion and tries to practice it completely), i can assure you that this is one of the worst takes ever, completely psuede-academically, totally lacking any root in the science of language etc. Its totally flawed and has zero sound evidences. Don’t fall for this, only listen to this account for good teachings in Arabic and Quran reading (tajweed).
Most probably dude is a fan of baathist party
Jazaak’Allaahu khaira brother for this invaluable insight 🎉
Further proof can be found in the hadith of Abu Hurairah عنهاللرضي in which he narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه و سلم said:
“When Allah created Adam, He breathed the soul into him, then he sneezed and said: ‘Alhamdulillah.’ So he praised Allah by His permission. Then His Lord said to him: ‘May Allah have mercy upon you O Adam. Go to those angels - to that gathering of them sitting - so say: 'As-Salamu alaikum.' They said 'Wa Alaikas-Salamu Wa Rahmatullah’. Then he returned to his Lord, He said: ‘This is your greeting and the greeting of your children among each other.’

"We" in French: nous (noo)

@Arabic101
Thanks the video.
Arabic and Biblical Hebrew are very similar.
Hebrew Bible has lots of Arabic words. "Bismillah", "Ayatollah", "Abdullah", "Muhammed", "Islam", Muslim", "Quran", "Hajj", "Masjid" are all Biblical Hebrew words.
The Semitic words like Bismillah, Ayatollah are all Arabic but also Biblical Hebrew words. So the word like Ayatollah آیتالله Ayat + Allah (אוֹת + אַלָהּ ) is holy word for Christians, Jews and Muslims. Ayatollah means “Sign from G-d”.
Typhical of Semitic language included Arabic is every word have root, word سكر have no root on it, so it must borrowed from another language, it borrow from Sanskrit शर्कर (zarkara) and there are another 15 words for Sugar in Sanskrit, just advice you need learn Philology to understand all languages in the world, and there are also Sanskrit's words in AlQuran too, dont be Fanatic with Arabic language and finally make you blind, in Islam all Languages is Egality, no one language is superior than others and no one language is inferior than others, i am muslim too, open your mind and read alot of Literature bro 🤝🤝🤝🤝
Sanskrit is derived from Tamil! ( sarkarai = sugar in Tamil… the oldest language)
@@zaksid3413 no, Sanskrit still oldest i think, it has 16 words for Sugar, how about Tamil?
The Quran is Arabic. The fact that some words in the Quran or names are not „originally“ Arabic does not make the Quran Inarabic. These words or names were known and used by the Arabs.
@@MAbuRowais which one I said that Quran is Inarabic? read slowly bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@zaksid3413 This is patently false, Dravidian languages have no relation to Sanskrit except loanwoards
with all due respect to the people who think this is wrong, as he said in the video, it is just a theory
Fantastic video about the Arabic tongue perhaps being the original tongue of all languages.
I'd like to add that not only Anglo-Saxon and Latin languages share roots with the Arabic tongue, I also noticed that Asian languages do too, for example, the Japanese language shares striking words with Arabic, like the word (sama) in Arabic, which means (sky, or something exalted or high) is the same word with a similar meaning in the Japanese language. Another example, the word (anta) in Arabic, which means (you) is the same in Japanese and has the same meaning, also, the word (yadd) in Arabic, which means (hand) is similar in pronunciation to the Japanese word (ude) which means (arm).
I'm not a linguist but I have interest in the Arabic tongue and its relation to The Glorious Quran and other languages old and new, and I find it fascinating how numerous are the examples that point to The Arabic tongue being most likely the original tongue!
Factually your statement is illogical … there are literally languages and peoples more ancient than Arabic. Akkadian, Sumerian, Egyptian…and those three are only the languages with WRITTEN records. What we do know is that the first languages were spoken not written, so there are languages that are more ancient than the languages that are known to pre-date Arabic.
My statement is not illogical because I did not say the Arabic tongue is for a fact the original tongue of all languages, rather I said it perhaps and most likely is, and I'd given examples that support what I'm saying even with hard to relate with languages, like Japanese!
In addition, what you've stated doesn't prove anything, because -and I'm sure you know this- at any moment, archeological discoveries can prove that Arabic is in fact older than all the languages you've mentioned, also, as for now, it is a fact that the Arabic tongue is way richer than all the languages you've mentioned, thus the fact that such archeological samples exist does not prove that those languages were older than Arabic or that Arabic did not exist before them.
I don't know if you're a Muslim or not, but as a Muslim myself, and with the concrete evidence that The Glorious Quran is factual and truthful, I am standing on solid ground when it comes to discussing such a topic, an even more solid ground than any academic studies and research.
With good intentions, I invite you to study The Glorious Quran and the Arabic tongue, then I'm positive you'll notice the numerous observations that make the Arabic tongue a superior candidate for an original tongue, because at the end of the day, there has to be an original tongue that all languages came from either directly or indirectly.@@SomeofThisSomeofThat
@@Abu7asan27 Again, your curiosity to consider whether Arabic is the oldest language is unfounded and quite literally makes no sense. Ill never understand why the world around white-washes or brown-washes human history when time after time after time all evidence points towards Sub-Saharan Africans being the first peoples. Maybe you should look to the original people and explore their languages. Then maybe you’ll find the original language…but you certainly wont find the answer from somebody whose bias is to prove Arabic as the “original” language.
Arabic is an Afro-Semetic language particularly from the Semetic branch which is pre-dated by the Afro branch. The Afro branch found in the Horn of Africa is pre-dated by African languages the further south in Africa you travel. Khoisan languages with the clicks consonants are estimated to be 60,000 years old.
The oldest language we have record of is Sumerian, which is not even an Afroasiatic language, let alone a form of Arabic.
These languages are semetic tho.(btw I completely disagree with that video)
Guys please watch the video before jumping to conclusions lol, although not all of the information here is accurate, the channel doesn't claim Arabic is the original language, he just wanted to share a theory by a researcher. Many languages in the world have been proposed to be the "original" language.
yeah the theory is usually referred to as proto-world. meaning a reconstructed language that branches into all languages we have today. claiming that Arabic in its current standard form is the same language as proto-world makes little sense given the changes that all languages inevitably go through. Arabic, too, surely underwent many changes before and after its standardization. It could be argued that most word roots from proto-world were preserved and passed down in Arabic though, under the assumption that the proto-world theory is correct
all the information is actually accurate, please this neutral hate shit is out of season
The video is trying to claim all languages come from Arabic. Which makes no sense considering the fact that there must have been a language before Arabic. Each language has a specific time period; it is impossible to keep a language alive without changing it unless it is only kept alive as a written language (which is the case with both Fusha Arabic and Latin, for example). The time period for spoken Fusha Arabic is approx. 600-800 AD and if you count Old Arabic which is a different language(s) the time period goes back to maybe 900 BC. It is clear that the author has heavily studied Arabic and has a great deal of appreciation for the language, but it doesn't seem like he has studied Philology, which is needed to understand a topic such as this one. Word cognates are expected to be found across most languages in the world, whether all languages come from the same source or not. Trace back Arabic far enough, and you get Proto-Afro-Asiatic, which the "oldest" reconstructed language in the world, in other words the oldest language known to exist. Look into that language instead of saying "Arabic is the oldest language". Think about it, if every language comes from the same source, then it logically follows that EVERY language in the world is the oldest language. You guys haven't studied this and it really shows. Maybe read about it before taking some guy's personal fringe theory as truth. Islam never claims that Arabic is the original language of humanity btw. If you believe that every language came from the same source, then every language that exists today is some kind of dialect of that original language, including Arabic. This is no "neutral hate", this is Philology. Have any of you studied Philology?
@@Omroqurba there's mistakes in the video.
@@calleha01 good analysis on the proto world
I believe that all languages, on Earth, came from one source, one humanbeing, Nabee Adam 3alaihissalaam.
If you read the origin of language, a lot of words of modern language are borrowed from Arabic but Arabic is also derived from Aramaic. Arabic started to become popular in early 2nd Century AD. Let's stick to more scientific approach. Let's keep Quran separate from unsupported arguments. The language used in Quran and its stylometry is beyond human comprehension.
Aramaic and Arabic both developed separately as part of the semitic language group- Arabic didn’t descend from Aramaic. However, I agree with the rest of what you said. Arabic isn’t the originator of all languages and no modern linguist Muslim or non Muslim would support that idea.
@@usayeed727 what about the language of Ad and Samud the Original Arabs before Ismail Alaihisalam?
This is very very very interesting.
Arabic and Latin alphabets both stem from the Phoenician alphabet. With the amount of English spoken in so many languages around the world, therefore we can conclude English is the source of all languages. Is the person who made this video mentally ill?
English isn't the mother/original source of all languages, English wasn't created before Phoenician, Arabic nor greek, actually. I forgot what is the original language or first recorded language in ge history. (maybe the sumerian, Babylonian, or others)
Wow really nice video
Is this based on research?
No this is absolute bunk
brother = baradar in farsi = bhrata in bengali
borg = borgo meaning fort in bengali = qala3a in arabic = alcala in Spanish
mead = mod in bengali
bog (God) in Serbian = bhog-oban in bengali
God = khoda in farsi
tripoli = tri (three) + polli (villages) in bengali
tyre = teer meaning shore in bengali
que meaning what in spanish = qui in bengali
kuru in japanese = koro in bengali
shinto in japanese = shindhu in bengali meaning sindh = hindu
Bengali is an Indo-European language, this is why we share a lot of common vocabulary.
@@urielamauri7633 It's also undeniable there are thousands of Arabic words in Bengali, as well.

Like, Arabic emerged from tamil, mother of every language
Dunno, wallahualam... Btw according to our legend in the Sunda region (West Java, Indonesia), the first bahasa/language used in prasasti (inscription) in Indonesia is bahasa Sansekerta with aksara Pallawa (especially in Kutai Kartanagara region, Kalimantan/Borneo/Baruna island, the oldest kingdom in Indonesia)...
However, aksara Hanacaraka/Javanese script is more popular in Java island because of Aji Saka/Ajivaka. He is our unifying figure, born in Kali Serayu river/Bumi Majeti. He introduced animism-dynamism belief (agama tirta), Saka calendar, and aksara Hanacaraka/Javanese script to our ancestor... You can find his legacy in Kosambi region in West Java, Daha/Kediri region in East Java and Mataram region in Central Java... But unfortunately we can't find his legacy in Jambudwipa (the old name for India according to our local legend purwacarita/purwa story)...
And today, the Saka calendar (in the form of Javanese calendar/Saka-Mataram calendar) and aksara Hanacaraka are used by muslim in Java island... Sultan Agung Mataram Islam influence (Mataram Islam Sultanate is the largest Islamic Sultanate in Southeast Asia before the Dutch came)...
About the Tamil language, we dunno... Whether, after the astika-nastika war between Sriwijaya, Mataram, and Cholamandala, the people of Cholamandala introduced their language and culture to our ancestors or not...
@@ariapinandita9240 every language has at least a word that is in Tamil(may be Ancient or morden) cuz it's the oldest language
We study Arabic because we need it to study Al Qur'an... Regarding whether the Arabic language is the first language of mankind, I don't know... But we need it to learn Islam well...
@@ariapinandita9240 Although I am not a Muslim I like Muslims 😊 and I read arabic cuz a I wanted to read Qur'an(they said non-Muslims can also read Al Qur'an) I tried to read it and gave up with first word of Al-Faitha(if spelling is wrong please forgive me) 'Bismillah'😅. But with the help of Holy Al-Fatah I could read Qur'an one day
@@roshanme2k Btw, can you tell me more about bahasa Tamil that the people of Cholamandala used? Maybe it's influenced our culture especially in Sumatra island/Swarnadwipa...
It's a local language that was used by my friend in Kampung Madras/Kampung Keling in Medan city (Maidanam) located Sumatra Utara province...
You should stick with Arabic lessons...
With this, what can kind of ᶜArabic is he teaching?!???!
Nope
