Twilight Bark Posted November 7, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 At the risk of interrupting a joyful conversation, I will continue with the original thread, which is nearing its end. "gir" is translated as a "courier" of some sort. I am not sure if it also means "porter" or not. In any case, it has to do with carrying things. It sounds very similar to the Armenian verb for carrying. A porter would be "perna-GIR". Again, there is an obvious indo-european connection(gir <--> carry). Those "indo-european" words that are found in Sumerian (and have counterparts in Armenian that sound close to the original) support the theory that the original indo-european speakers were a lot closer to the Sumerians than Europeans preferred to think, say in Anatolia. The corrolary to this is that Armenians, although undoubtedly intermingled with newcomers, did not have to go through a fictional migration from the Balkans to arrive at their homeland. But that is a different topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harut Posted November 7, 2001 Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 what happened? the Sumerian guy died? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Bark Posted November 7, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 Since Harut asked for more, I will add one last Sumerian "riddle". His boss asked the grown-up boy (who is now a courier) to deliver a bag full of "guskin" pieces. When the courier was not back on "adannu", the boss started worrying that the flunkie disappeared for good with his precious cargo. Can you find the Armenian words that sound like the quoted Sumerian words and have the same meanings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harut Posted November 7, 2001 Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 ok, i'll try again. "guskin" is "voski", i think."addanu" is "aden", "jamanak", i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Bark Posted November 7, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 Abris Harut! At the end of our story, the guy indeed takes off to be never seen again. Some say he went to the Land of Aratta in the north and enjoyed his early retirement there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
