    Small correction on Latin, it would be more correct to use a returned pronunciation of Latin (classical pronunciation), while that of the video is the ecclesiastical pronunciation, which is not wrong, but the classical pronunciation would be more correct since we are talking about ancient languages

      Classical Latin never pronounced "v" as a modern v it would have sounded like W. Only church Latin pronounced it like a modern V. Similarly in Classical Latin "C" was hard as in Cat not soft as in church Latin.

    The ancient Greek that is heard is actually a dialect that prevailed during the Hellenistic period (323 BC-300 AC) and was called «Koine» (κοινή - common). Τhis dialect is very close and similar to modern Greek and therefore easily understood by modern Greeks.
    The excerpt is the beginning of the Gospel of John which had been translated into koine by the Septuagint in Alexandria. It would be interesting if ancient Greek included the Attic or the Ionian dialects, in which the masterpieces of the Greek philosophers were written. Also, the pronunciation is very bad, like an Englishman trying to speak Greek or me English
    Correction: The gospel of John was originally written in the Greek language (Koine). The Septuagint translated only the old testament texts into koine.

      @@MrMirville That'd be inaccurate, it's not a conlang, referring it in that manner would be bad linguistics. Daksiputra Panini, Bhartrhari and other grammarians did not attempt to coalesce various Indian tongues when he ended up creating what we call Classical Sanskrit or Paniniyan Sanskrit. What he did was to introduce Grammatical reforms and rules to formalize a dying natural language whose regional dialects had begun turning into Independent languages, which resulted in it freezing from further natural development as it turned into a language of liturgy and the intellectual classes.
      If anything, Classical Sanskrit is less morphologically complex than Vedic Sanskrit.
      You could argue that Classical Sanskrit happens to be a very formalized natural language that appears constructed, seeing how it's direction was significantly influenced by the pronouncements of grammarians.

      @@anirudh177 I have caricatured my point a little bit : actually they tried to make all texts they considered sacred readable by the rules they tried to formulate and edict, even though these sacred texts might actually come from dialects distant from each other : Sanskrit has integrated undeniably even "non-Aryan" root words, grammatical forms like the "absolutive" (very characteristic of Tamil), and sounds like the lingual consonants that don't exist anywhere else in the Indo-European world but are the most prevalent in Tamil. But the fact is that Sanskrit is easier to learn if you learn it like if it were a conlang, precisely because it has more regularity in its numerous noun and verb forms. Sanskrit despite having sacred texts written in a very inflexional language like most Slavic languages still are, has by itself more the characteristics of an agglutinative language like Turkish or Esperanto, especially if you read rather technical manuals of yoga or astrology : everything is composed of nominal sentences made of huge compounds. One proof of its composite nature is the presence of so many past tenses that more or less mean the same thing (namely the equivalent of a simple ptreterit like the English one).

    I can't comment on any of the languages ​​other than 1st century AD Hellenistic common language. The sound of Greek we heard was definitely from some foreign Western European who has just started learning Greek and is pronouncing it syllabically. If you want to hear the sound of this text in a beautiful flowing Greek language you can visit today a Greek Orthodox church where the sound of it has been preserved unadulterated. We will have our doubts about the other languages ​​that today are probably extinct!!

      @@Kyle-uz1rp Officially, it was the Jewish god Yahu/El who demanded this sacrifice and then had second thoughts. But you are definitely not wrong.
      Fun fact 1: Ba'al just means Lord, and was sometimes used in this sense in reference to the Jewish god. But it was also used as the name of a specific god of thunder and war. The Jewish god was the result of a merger of El, creator of the universe and father of all other gods, and Yahu, a god of thunder and war. El had been the main god of Israel=Samaria (northern kingdom, capital Shechem), and Yahu of Judah (southern kingdom, capital Jerusalem). Some of the most important parts of the Jewish Bible were forged out of northern and southern texts that came from a time of conflict between the two kingdoms and vehemently contradicted each other. So in a sense it would be as correct to say that Ba'al = Yahu as it is to say that the Jews have only a single god.
      Fun fact 2: The fact that there are prohibitions against human sacrifice in the Jewish Bible indicates that this was a practice that existed at the time and that the texts wanted to stop. The purpose of the Abraham story was probably to give a justification for the new prohibition. So clearly humans were sacrificed to Yahu/El. Some scholars believe that (only) in this context Yahu/El was referred to with the honorific 'Molokh'. The passages referring to this were later reinterpreted as being about a different god with this name.

    A few years later I traveled to Italy and actually got to see two Etruscan tombs, and I visited museums that featured Etruscan pottery and statuary artifacts. The Etruscans came alive for me when I listened to the words in the video. It's one thing to read about, research, and then write on a culture, group or nation, but it's another thing to hear an ancient language brought to life and imagine people who used that language on a daily basis.

      Languages can be connected up to about 8000 years ago. Beyond that, it becomes extremely difficult or impossible to differentiate between random chance and an actual relatiuonship. Ex: Indo-European (ancestor to English, Hindi, ect...), Uralic (Hungarian, Estonian, ect...) and Tupian (Tupi, Guarani, ect...) are about 5000 years old, Algic (Cree, Obijwe, ect...) is about 7000 years old, and Austroasiatic (Vietnamese, Khmer, ect...) is about 4500 years old.
      The only family to break this is Afroasiatic (Arabic, Hausa, ect...) which is, at the low end, 12000 years old.
