People really need to learn the difference between nationality and ethnicity before taking these tests.
NadinaStryhn,
I agree with your point about race and ethnicity.
It would be great if more people knew that ethnicity is not a race. Ethnicity and race are two different things.
Actually race is a broad concept that encompasses at time ethnicity, ancestry, nationality and even religion.
Nationality, ethnicity ... dan
“I’m Greek... Go get the plates” I’m so dead 😂😂
rhia mds can you, please, explain what that means. (English is not my native language). Does it have something to do with food? (Just curious😂)
Natalya Myronyak I am not Greek, but I suppose it refers to a tradition to throw plates on the ground on holidays/fests (special plates, not the once they serve food in of course haha). You can see the Wikipedia article “Plate smashing” for more info
I am Greek and every time I hear this I want to shake my head - we invented democracy and people associate us with plate smashing :-(
it's a custom that developed here in Greece when tourism began to pick up in the 60s and 70s and rich people came to the Greek islands. To entertain them (and make them part with more of their money) we took a very simple and economical wedding tradition and we simply exaggerated. And we got stuck with it!
Thanks)
Never actually heard of such a tradition. That's kind of interesting because in Ukraine we don't smash plates intentionally but if that happens we always say something like "that's for happiness".
Eftychia Kourempana As a “neighbor” I just wanted to add that we associate you with so much more and so many nicer things than “plate smashing”, but I do understand your frustration!
‘you married a bare white girl’ LMAOOOO
easy way this comment made me laugh
easy way tf why you so triggered lmao wth Halloween witch dress where ??? It’s her religion and culture if she wants she can wear it who are you to tell her that she has to change herself. Where do you see she’s above the culture she’s living in do you even think before writing. She did not say the results were crap can’t you not see she’s being sarcastic jeeez calm your tits
easy way ok you're actually fucking wrong because Islam doesn't say anywhere to wear 'witch clothing' so obviously she wouldn't, you don't need to be so offensive when it's only one youtuber who you obviously have some sort of hatred towards smh. She's wearing an over sized jumper that many people from all over the word wear (its fashion) and a headscarf which is worn for modesty and to show our devotion to god. You're obviously not Muslim because you're being incredibly disrespectful right now
easy way LMFAO ain’t nobody reading that essay sis
ITS LIT 😂
Iberia= the area of land that consists of Spain, Portugal, Andorra, Gibraltar, and part of France
and Gibraltar
France no
Wtf France isn't in Iberia
France isn't in Iberia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eagle so true
What's surprising is the lack of geography knowledge they both have
He said that Iberia is an Airline company.
Islam+american education = brain dead
What's really surprising (and sad) is how proud they are of their lack of knowledge.
They aren't American
GAIUS LULIUS CAESAR with their accents, I would guess they were educated in the UK.
In so many DNA test videos people have no idea what Iberian and Ashkenazi mean, it blows my mind. And people always think certain things are going to come up. I watched one video where this guy was shocked because it didn’t say Latino like.... what would that even be. Then he was confused about why it said Iberian and Native American lol. I saw another where a guy expected his to say African-American. It genuinely makes me sad how ignorant people are when it comes to stuff like this
Adelina Magda Wow...I am by no means, “smarter than average”, but thats really basic stuff. How do people know nothing of their own ethnicity?
So true, the levels of both ignorance and stupidity, which of course are not the same thing, about geography and ethnicity are amazing. It's clear that the most basic terms and concepts are never mentioned at home or at school.
Sadly, in so many cases the old joke applies: .Q. What is the difference between ignorance and apathy? A. I don't know and I don't care.
Michele Hanlon: I was actually replying to the first poster. Otherwise, I would have specified a person.
I'm sorry my response causes you to feel apathetic - I almost feel something in response. (Nah, I don't - my apathy towards this entire subject is growing, I'm afraid).
I don't think I implied the above couple were stupid. It would ill behove me to do so, I'm afraid. Infact,where did I even use the word "stupid"? However, I will say that they are ignorant, as in not knowing where Iberia is - and then flaunting this ignorance with a statement along the lines of there is an airline called Iberia. The apathy comes into play with their raucous screeches of mirth, without giving the least thought to using their phone to google.
Perhaps they did google: my interest disappeared before the halfway mark. Oh, and by the way, whilst they may not be stupid, they are exhibiting stupidity.
u are so smart u bitch
As a historian, I'm not surprised. Literally everyone living/coming from the countries around the Mediterannean Sea has mixed heritage & DNA because there's been travel, trade and migration across the sea since the Roman Empire.
Even before that!
Captain Cluskey it's still happening
Exactly. Plus these test only go back 6 to 15 generations. Gedmatch goes back 9 thousand years.
No to mention colonization.
"you married a bare white girl" laughed so hard at that. You two look like the happiest couple in the world.
Ma sha allah
yh same i could not stop laughing
White women are so beautiful
“You married a bare white girl” 😂😂😂😂😂
easy way I think she looks amazing, it’s a matter of opinion. Dina is not forcing you to like her style or even watch her videos. If you don’t like her please leave, because it’s kinda embarrassing that your watching her videos just so that you can hate on her. Also just because Dina is half Egyptian doesn’t mean she knows the full history of her country. I’m from Sri Lanka and I don’t know everything to do with my country’s history. This doesn’t make me or Dina uneducated. In fact, the only person uneducated here is you, did your mama not teach you manners?
easy way you claim that you don’t care about her yet you constantly keep saying that she’s an uneducated weirdo who needs to get out of her “witch dress”. Why do you care about how she dresses? Does it offend you that much? Is a women breaking stereotypes making you feel uneasy? 😂😂 The things you have commented says more about you than Dina.
easy way you're just copy and pasting comments lol you have nothing to do with your life😂 you don't have the right to say she looks like a witch when you don't even show your face
Khadijah NAsleem
The only thing I know about Sri Lank is that Arab merchants and traders in the middle ages used to call the Island "Sarandib".
@easy way You seem to be really bothered by the way she's dressed. Besides that, why does she have "obviously nothing to do in Europe"? Oh, you said it's because "they pretend to be superior with their halloween witch costume, and try to pretend they are above the culture they live in". What is it that she's done to pretend she's above the culture she lives in? BE half British (her mom is full white British)? Speak English? Make RUclips videos? Take a DNA test like countless other Western RUclipsrs? All seem pretty standard British cultural things to do. Oh but her witch costume! For someone calling her uneducated it's funny that you spelled martian wrong, doubly so because you're upset at her not fitting in with European culture. So how about you educate yourself on your own language?
Im always literally dying because of sid's comments and reactions. ''Dina was thinking she be here going ''OMG IM BLACK'''' HAHAHAH
PanjsheriiGak i literally read this comment as he said it lmao😂😂
Like vicky woah not even woahh vicky 😂😂😂😂
Ray Ray no, it's nothing to do with that. If she was black and sis said 'omg you're white' it would have the same concept, don't comment when you don't know the context behind their own comments
MoonlightBae* If she was black she likely would have said “omg in Italian”, or German or whatever white ethnicity it was but the fact she blatantly said “I’m black! Lolz”, it’s obvious there is a racist undertone :)
MoonlightBae* don’t try to educate me on the obvious racism within the Arab community when I grew up around them and saw it first hand :)))
No Abla, your Egyptian side is represented by both the ME + NA components and the Greek component is actually your so-called Turkish ancestry because Anatolia was inhabited by many ethnicities and people and that Turkish grandparent you might had was actually Greek who assimilated into Ottoman/Turkish culture (language and religion) whether forcefully or not and then migrated to Egypt sometime in the last 200 years.
Greetings from Egypt
Ethnicity is not a race. Ethnicity and race are two different things.
Krystal Harmony Tikvah there is no such thing as race because it is a social construct. There's only one race... human!!
There is no such thing as RACIAL HIERARCHY because it is a social contract.
I read a comment like yours, and it reminds me that there is hope for people. What people don't recognise is that these DNA tests, besides being very flawed, also rely on very Eurocentric categories and groupings of people. And that in fact, the rest of the world enjoyed a much more cosmopolitan mix. What's more disturbing is how little value seemingly educated Muslims place in respecting ethnic and cultural heritage, when it is a specific commandment in the religion.
Brian Landers....I am RELIGIOUS up to the teeth.....but you wont get me cringing on any other religion because I can deal with it!!!!SOME OTHERS need to get in sync with THEIR universe because they HAVE PROBLEMS.
You are hysterically funny and wonderfully cheery!! Thanks for the absolutely delightful time I had laughing and feeling happy.
Iberia- spain/ portugal... Dina you and 2c should both have done it to see how different your results would be🤗😁😊
S Y Khan i agree! Her and 2c should do them to compare. They say everyones DNA is different like thumbprints so even twins would be a bit different.
If they are monozygotic twins they have identical DNA.
Fizz Whizz they’re not monozygotic seeing as they’re fraternal
Iberia is also North Africa 👌🏼
These tests are not always accurate and siblings/ non identical twins etc can show quite significant differences... would be very interesting 😊
“مفيش مصر ومفيش تركيا We’re not even Egyptian, broOOo” 😂😂
Shaimaa Ziara oh I wanted to hear his reaction to being part ashkenazi jew
😂😂🤣😂
Shaimaa Ziara i
@@um22w22
nonsense is this jewsh thing are they ame making the race like religion .. many jew conveted to islam. After conversation they say it's Iraqi jew it's askhanazi jew ...
This is like their religious propogada
You're 20% Spanish or Portuguese!! Iberia is Spain and Portugal
Possibly, but remember Spain was occupied by Arabs for 700 years.
Possibly, she are Moorish Spanish expulsed of Spain to Africa, and Spain have many colonies in Norteafrica.
Many Norteafrican have DNA from Iberia.
Many Muslims return to Morocco in 1492 because they did not want to convert to Christianity, and in 1609 "Expulsion of Moorish" because the muslims converts to christianity allied with the Turks and were expelled from Spain for treason to Spain.
The muslims in Spain sought bleaching and married Germanic Visigoth nobility or Hispanic-Visigoth nobility to govern and ruled, also had Slavic mercenaries muslims. Many had blue, green eyes and some were red-hair or blondes, just like some contemporary Spaniards
“DNA results? YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER” oh I love him😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
it doesn't mean that your dad or other family members aren't Egyptian, it just mean you did not inherit that dna-part.
Mariam morjan glad someone mentioned this lol
Mariam morjan but she automayically inherits 50% of her dad's dnaaa
Every Egyptian is a mix of white, black, middle eastern etc because of all the invasions and the different types of people coming in contact throughout the years
Julia Gardner yeah you inherit from both your parents. But you don’t inherit everything. Which means that you inherit some things, and some things you don’t. Your siblings could have a dna part you don’t have. And you can also inherit som dna parts from other people in your family tree.
Julia Gardner the 50/50 split is a myth. You only get around 50% from each parent but you can also get closer to 40% from one parent and 60% from the other one. There is also a chance that you get a lot from your grandparents and Egypt is super mixed anyway. My two older siblings and I are all from the same parents and we still had very different results. I have more from our dad's side of the family while our brother(funny enough the middle child)is the almost equally 50/50 child and my sister has more traits from our mothers side of the family. So technically I'm a little more related to my older brother than to my older sister.
What so surprising in this? Egypt had gone through too many rulers from different parts of the world, throughout history, and before Islam lots of Arabic tribes had ancestry back to the East Mediterranean, Even some Egyptian queens like Cleopatra was originally Greek, & so some Lebanese & Palestinean regions. Some Yamani tribes who spread all over the Arabian peninsula were Jews, so the painful reality is with all our ethnic, cultural & political differences we are the same people.
I can't see how the incident of( burning Christians) related to our subject. However, unfortunately most of religions have bloody history between one another, and what happened later to Jews on the hands of extreme Catholics and later Hitler are other examples of religious extremism throughout history, and nowadays we have some extremists among all religions unfortunately.
Cleopatra was Ptolemaios (macedonian, descendants of one of Alexander’s generals). This was actually painful to watch, “Iberia is a country” *facepalm*....”what is ashkenazi babes”. The spanish/arab mix is easy to explain and the ashkenazi 1% i think it’s how they explain the “neanderthal” dna, idk if it’s actually jewish
@Mini Me well he said the same thing, actually if you want to be even more specific they was peloponnesians (since Ptolemy and all Macedonian nobles claimed descent from Argead dynasty in Peloponnesus).
Also its really easy to be 1% jewish since they live all around the west, if one of your grand-grand parents had 1 half-jew in their genealogical tree, its enough to be 1% jewish.
Thessaloz George being very much into anthropology i m fascinated by these dna tests videos and in one of them a scientist explained how that 1% ashkenazi jewish appears in the majority of people of european descent and not in people of pure african descent. I’m not sure it’s neanderthal (just an unverified theory) but europeans seem to have some early human dna, either it’s neanderthal or another hominid idk and this geneticist said they identify it in test results as “ashkenazi jewish” (which is a generic name for european jews)
Rose Vassiliou macedonian...Alexander the Great and his generals (including Cleopatra’s ancestor) were macedonians (not bronze age mythical claims, actual historical fact).
75.8% european correlates pretty well with your looks, in my humble opinion. ;)
her looks is 80% makeup so I cannot tell what she really looks like
Thanks for sharing Dina! Hello from NZ! I was adopted from Russia and I didn't meet my birth parents until I was 21. I just recently did a DNA test myself that I shared on my own video. It's always interesting for everyone! Thanks again for sharing!
"We're not Egyptian, bruh".
I died.
I know, wow, those Egyptians must be counting themselves pretty lucky there.
Iberia is an airline, 23.8% airplane dna
Lolllllllllll
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂 😂 😂
"Omg I'm black"
I died😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nadine Salem same
We have the same last name !!
Mohammed Baddar dina wants to say the n word lol jk
Ray Ray It's funny how you're the only one accusing me of being racist. I don't need to justify anything to you because people like you aren't worth the explanation. You're so pathetic.
Jay A Ayyyy preach it✌✌ I swear people are so aggressive these days who like to make assumptions as they please. Thank God for people like you!
Blessings to the world ! You guys are INSANE ! Hugs, enjoyed. Thanks for sharing. SHE is hilarious ! May the MOST HIGH bless you both !
You both are precious ❤️❤️I just started following you I love to see a Muslim couple who has fun cuz ppl actually thing we don’t have fun lol! God bless you and your family and Ramadan Kareem inchallah to all
YES! Greek and Spanish, a beautiful people. Anyways It doesnt matter, its where you were born and raised and made your beautiful life. We as a people are always on the move, migrating, emigrating or crossing borders. Cheers to you Dina. Ciao. 👍
THEY’RE SO BEAUTIFUL!! Gorgeous couple!
What ? 🙄
Sid: West Africa...?! NIGERIA!!
I died 😂😂😂
I did this test and I was 30% ashkenazi jewish. Sid is probably the same since he is pathan too. Pashtun ancestors were jewish before they were muslim.
Shereena really?! That is fascinating truly. I thought they mostly moved in Mideast and Egypt. But wow!! People are amazing the way they move and live and adapt.
That's actually very cool and I didn't know that
Miszy Khan best wishes for your recovery sister. What is that disease?
Didn’t she have 1%
Arguable, I'm Pashtun I did the test and I got 44% Iranian. Afghanistan and Iran used to be one Country called Persia so perhaps Sid may have Iranian in him
I am 40%Vulcan, 22% Klingon, 8% Ferengi, 14% Andorian, 10% Borg, and 6% just plain spaced out!!!
This is such a cute couple and the young lady is absolutely beautiful!!!
DINA IS NIGERIAN YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 hahaha im so happy 😂 im throwing a party in my head rn🌚
I hope you have a blessed marriage inshallah
lol 3% means nothing when it comes to ancestry
Arbn it does mean something it makes up apart of her dna stupid just like the rest of the country's that are in her dna
3% actually means a 3xgreat grandmother of 100% of said ancestry
Arbn dna doesn’t work that way lol , imagine your grandfather is Chinese, it would mean you’d be 1/4 Chinese right? That’s 25% but dna isn’t actually broken in to half like they teach us ( you’ll find out after a little bit of research ) the max percentage you could have is 25% Chinese but it could also be that you only got a small amount of dna from your grandfather so it could also be 18% or more/less.
It all depends on what you’ve got from your ancestors
Ur makeup looks so beautiful 😍😍
It's not the makeup that's beautiful..it's cause her face is already pretty she will look good with anything..if an ugly person tried this makeup it wouldn't look so nice..lol understand what I mean
Your makeup is bomb af! You need to do a makeup tutorial on this! 😍❤️
No idea who she is but doesn’t come across as very well read or intelligent. Test should have said she’s a Kardashian.
That’s the best
😂
Mike Malone ʚ(ˆ▽ˆ)ɞ H̤̮ɑɑᵔᵕᵔH̤̮ɑɑᵔᵕᵔH̤̮ɑɑ kardashian
👍👍👍👏
Exactly!
The thing is , Turks are extremely mixed too!! So the Greek part is most probably your Turkish part. I am Turkish and my results were showing I was Greek 😂 The 'turks' are people from central asia. And nobody in Turkey even looks asian so imagine the dna. We are just a melting pot.
Hahaha doğru
Ji Han so true! I know lots of Turks with Albanian ancestors! My grandpa from mom's side is albanian too.
Ase Mur yep egyptians too
there tends to be a lot of muddying of the waters where the eastern med/levant/fertile crescent is concerned
I do know a lot of turks who look asian though
"Mafich masr mafich Turkey, we're not Egyptian bruuh " 😂😂 I died
Sid: And spend thousands of pounds on cotton swaps. *looks sideways to Dina* 😂😂😂😂
I'm still dying at that part 😂😂😂
that part killed me hahahahahaha
Once a Londoner, always a Londoner regardless of DNA

Asiyah Herrera LMAO
Rawan Failakawi yeah but to her surprise this test proved she’s more than 50% white haha
Sam S Greeks arent white.
Turkish perhaps?
Kingdom Warrior Greeks ARE white ;)
You should by a 23 and Me DNA test it's really detailed, it also tells you if there are any illness that you're biologically prone to and I think you can also find people who've done the test are related to you.
That must've been the one I saw on another video, the Ancestry one in comparison was very basic and listed less countries
I wanna do the 23andme one but they don't ship to Japan and if the package comes to them with a Japanese tracking slip they throw out your sample. ughhh.
puhua paska He should get it done, its amazing.
The 23 and Me does do the heath stuff if you pay a little more, but the one that connects you with relatives is the Ancestry one. That's why I picked it after researching all of them.
puhua paska better hope the insurance companys don't get ahold of that!
Because if you have any kind of diesease... They will know
Watch your insurance go sky high!
Also...mabey they might be looking for good body parts...
Take caution when doing these tests!!
Sid and Dina I absolutely love you both. Your channels always have great content and you never fail to make me laugh. ' I'm Greek go and get the plates ' 😂😂 you crack me up (no pun intended)
NannyEm& BabyLevi 😂😂😂😂😂👏🏽👏🏽

The voice note that Dina left for her dad made my day 😭😂😂😂😂😂
kanzah 123 dead at Ni Gyptian bro😂😂😂😂
I love your personalities. You are both funny and cute together
So entertaining!!! I did a 23andMe test, grew up thinking my Mom was 100% Polish...the most I could be is 37%! And of course anyone I could ask about these secrets is gone! So interesting!
Maybe do another test for both of you! 💙💙💙
The tests show how much you have in YOUR DNA, your dad could be 100% British and your mom 100% italian but in your results show 72% british or something. It doesn't show the DNA of your ancestors
If you're 37% Polish and it's from your mom then it means she's 74% Polish... I'm pretty most Polish are no more than 74% Polish in their DNA... lot of Russian, German, Other eastern european! It's very well possible that your mom and all her ancestor of the past 200 years are born in Poland and yet due to massive influx of Russian/German/... DNA in the past they all had on average 25% of non-Polish DNA!
@ENZO if your dad is 100% british and your mom 100% Italian then you'll be 50% british and 50% Italian... maybe 51/49 due to randomness but never 72% British!
If your mom makes a DNA test and it shows that she's 95% Italian for example, then you should be at least ~45% italian, if you're not then it's not your mom!
P V I'm just saying a lot of people think you'll get exactly half from mom and dad when in reality it could go either way, like I've seen some vids where they say they have some of a particular ethnicity but it doesn't show up on the results and they think they've been lied to their whole life. In reality it just didn't show up in their DNA
@ENZO You got exactly 50% from your mom and 50% from your dad. If one ethnicity doesn't show up in your results it's either because the test was inaccurate (yet it happens less and less as they gather more and more data) or that you don't have any ancestors from that ethnicity!
If you have one grand parent who was 100% Middle Eastern for example and you don't have any middle eastern DNA then your grand parent is not yours, there's no way around it, DNA doesn't lie! The innacuracies and possible errors are extremely low!
Besides being European, I'm like 20% Iberian too. Spain, Portugal and Northern Africa. Try to remember, we are all mixed! Each person is given DNA and not all DNA is received into us from our Parents! I never knew this. So, they can be 75% English but you may only receive 10%, or vice versa! I think it's strange because my Mom got 15% Cherokee and I got 0% but I got Yakut (Northern Siberia-Eurasian)!! And my Mother & Father has zero. So where did that come from?....hummm Mom? LOL But I also show 52% Neanderthal variants of those tested so far. DNA is weird and most of us are just a mash-up of a bunch of different races! We truly are the world. :)
+Bambi -- perfect. I know now that I should open my own business of DNA tests. Easy -- Step 1: take the cash. Step 2: print random results from an algorithm I design. Step 3: email the bologna.
Not all people are "mixed" African peoples are the FIRST and OLDEST human population on earth.
Let me put it in easier terms. When you arrive to a party and your the first one there who is there to dance with? Similarly, when your the FIRST human population on earth who would be there to mix with?
We are not all "mixed" follow now?
Yes, I "follow". I also have my genealogy. My Great-Grandmother was listed as Black. We are certain she was mixed. But we do know that she was originally from South Carolina, which was a slave State. So there's that. Cheers.
Bambi Wooten
First, Iberian is a part of europe. Second, north africa is north africa, not Iberian. Third, get some education.
Bambi Wooten The tests aren’t perfect. My father got two tests from two different companies and they came out quite different.
Pretty cool guys! My wife bought me one of these kits from Christmas... Being part Italian and part Greek and with a little bit of German on my dad's side.. I am really curious now to go ahead and do my DNA kit! Interesting results Dina! Thanks for sharing!
Holy shit this was funny! I love how close you 2 are, it's amazing!
You two are so fun and funny! Thank you for your real video. Reactions to the silliness of DNA tests, and their lack of detail. It would be fascinating if DNA tests were more precise and spot on. Too bad they are not, and my compliment on not wasting more money. Keep up the great work!
THAT LOOK IS FIRE DINA 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I thought everyone learned about the Iberian peninsula in school (geography class) Dina is a beautiful woman no matter what ethnic mixture she has
texashookdude99 No don't think we did
Nope,
Ashkenazi Jew is a Central/Eastern European Jew: German, Polish, Russian, Czech, Slovak and Hungarian.
yes
Kinda they originate from Israel but we're ran out and ended up in east and Central Europe majority of ashekanzis actually were in places like Ukraine and Bulgaria compared to further west like Germany until fairly recently in history
Well your last name, Torkia should give you some indication. When the Ottomans ruled Egypt, there was heavy mixing between them, the Armenians, the Greeks, Russians, Romans and Copts in the north. Most of the Arabs were pushed southward and then they created a caste system. People were given last names based upon what they were classed as, Torkia or Turki if they were Turks, Al-Arabi if they were Arabs.
Just by your name it is clear that you are not an Arab, even if you know some. Instead the Turks, Crusaders and others that mixed in the north are where you came from.
Is that the reason why people in the Saudi royal family are named Turki as well?
Yes, the mother was Turkish but the father was Arab.
ok, thanks!
shughl1 NE MUTLU TÜRK’ÜM DİYENE! 🇹🇷
I'm Iberian, Spanish more accurate... I've just discovered I'm a plane...
I CAN FLY!!!
Seriously, take geography lessons... Iberia is a Peninsula, our Airlines are called like that because of that...
LOL
LOL Savage!
to be fair, no one outside of the Iberian peninsula really uses that word to describe that region, it's just Spain and Portugal, I only found out after accidentally coming across it on the internet some time ago, not because of a geography lesson, this shit isn't really important to know is it?
@FZ Channel not in the UK
LOLOLOL! I'm 5.3% Iberian! I can't believe the ignorance I noticed of a certain reality star about the country Albania!
It doesn’t mean you’re not half Egyptian lmao, i don’t quite think you understand the concept of the ancestry/heritage DNA test
Rima so what is the concept?
Jay A No you get exactly the same amount of DNA from each parent ,the discrepancy exists because of how these genes are expressed and which ones are dominant or recessive.
These tests show what's in your DNA. If some people move to Egypt from Syria for example and don't reproduce with locals, then even after few generations of living in Egypt (and being egyptian), they will still not have any Egyptian DNA!
It's what's the guy said in the video "it doesn't matter, it's not your DNA who determine your culture"!
Or maybe you don't betch!
RosesOfGold The problem is that what most people know about DNA is based on what is taught in schools. But what is taught is very basic. eg You get one eye colour gene from each parent, say blue and brown and brown is the more dominant, so that’s the colour your eyes are. That’s true but in reality it’s way more complex than that. You actually have a number of genes that affect eye colour and you don’t necessarily inherit an equal share of those genes from each of your parents and they can combine in different ways. That’s why full siblings can look so different from each other.
The thing about these tests though, is that they only compare some of your DNA strands. That’s why people get different results from different tests. It’s not a mistake, they’re just comparing different Dna strands. That means that you can still be 70% something but the genes they happen to test might be the ones that don’t come from that 70%.
Dina!!! thanks for your video!! I'm a very fan!!!!
I did my test with MyHeritage too and I can recommend that you do your test now with 24genetics because they right now have the best precision and they have more regions!
I hope your video :) kisses!!!! (L)
Vickywoah 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂you mean woahvicky I’m deaaaadddd
You both look lovely and sound British. Yes, finding out your ancestry can be surprising. I had my father and brother tested. Their results were different from each other but my brother carried my mothers dna too. It would be a good idea to test a near male relative to see if you have Egyptian dna.
I did my dna test too, so African as in 100% and I could not be happier.
That's highly unlikely MamaDee unles you were born directly from an African tribe that's been isolated from the rest of the world for centuries. If you trace back even 250 years which say covers 9 generations, that's over 1,000 parents, grands and great grands that you descend from since only that time.
MamaDee Really very rare, are you an African as in not African American
On average, self reported blacks in American have 20% "white" admixture. It would be very rare for an individual with 100% African ancestry to be commenting on this platform and to have participated in a commercial genetic testing service.
Also, Mike C, if you're Sardinian you're genetically much closer to being African than you are to being Northern Italian. Just because the population references your genetic testing service used - to spit a result back at you - didn't say African doesn't mean much. The actual genetics of the population you're from is pretty obscure.
Love all African muslims from india..we are one ummah remember our greatest identity is ummah..❤
We're all African in the end .................... no matter what colour we've got.
I’m glad that you guys got your DNA test results, but it really doesn’t matter because both of you are very beautiful people.
Elegant is the word I would use. I would be QUITE PROUD to know them or have them as neighbors. ;-)
This video 👌🏼😂
Btw jews are our cousins so it's normal that we have jewish things in our dna and i'm sure they have arab things in theirs too.
Waiting for Sid's DNA test 😄
The reason you have Greek, is because your father could be originally Greek!.... The greek lived in Egypt a long while back!
Lol no it’s from her mother her dad is the arab one
swimmergurl808 lol no, there are many Egyptians who are originally Turkish or Greek because they lived in Egypt for a long while, so her dad’s grand parents or great great great grand parents could be greek and they dont even know..😂
swimmergurl808 Greeks ruled Egypt for some amount of time so it's most likely from her Egyptian side. A lot of the countries in Northern Africa and the Levant have some Southern European ancestry due to the geographic location in the Mediterranean.
Naya M her mom is European white lmao
Naya M her moms side of the family is white and not Muslim. Dina even said waking up for Christmas was my favorite past time memory
Handsome couple. I would think that they would know more about geography. She looks Middle Eastern, more so than English. She is gorgeous.
She looks Middle Eastern because of her hijab.
She's a English convert😂
No she looks white lol
Hibaq - I look similar to her and I am Russian and Yaqui. So just my opinion the 75% shows most.
Well she's mostly European.
Most people are a mix of different Countries and I think its beautiful never get down bc of who u are all life is amazing no matter what's your heritage
Loved the video, you both have such persnalities, fun to watch
these comments are so rude LMAO as if everyone here is an expert with geography. No need to be judgy
The level of stupidity was too high to be ignored.
@@aryagohari7898 lol !!
@@nopseudo5828 😂😂😂❤
omg.... did they go to school??? so ignorant..
Why you even watching there video if your gonna hate
@@sullywully922 I didn't know they are so ignorant at the time...I mean hello? at least edit the video and cut that
@Anonymous A880 But come on, edit that.I don't understand how people are proud of that.
It's note like the are from a third world country and didn't go to school....
@Anonymous A880 so true I wasn't taught any of that at school this stuff I learnt on google
School teaches you about Iberia? I have no clue wtf Iberia and those stuff are. Just coz you know some shit doesn't mean everyone knows it. Dumb fuck.
You look cheerie about this....hahaha i loved it...
Awesome video guys. Love the banter too lol. I would have never guessed 75% European.
With your Egyptian results (or lack there of) it shouldn’t worry you too much as although your family’s most likely been there for centuries, the indigenous peoples, the Nubians, Sudanese migrant Medjay (ethnic group) and other Nilotic African Ethnic Groups stretches back thousands of years beyond modern history so with all the invasions/conquests from Europe, Asia and the Middle East over that time, it’d be a lot harder for a DNA test to pick up an accurate indigenous result which is probably why it didn’t show up in this specific test you ran 👍🏾.
Mr Romelle. When the Mamluks were kicked out of Turkey/Turkiye, then ended up in Alexandria, Egypt and had their own community. The Mamluks were often Christian slaves who sought conversion as a way top serve their oppressor (as if they had a choice). Ethnically, some of these were of Albanian background along with fellow Greek and perhaps Ukranian and Eastern European followers. It makes sense that depending on one's place of birth in Egypt, they would either show the 'foreign' contribution or the Nubian/Sudanese connection, or the expression of both. So when Arabs sign the bravery of Antar (hero of the Arabs) they sing truth. Look at Sadat, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Egyptians as a multiethnic society. Islam as a unifier is often overrated, at best. All good men are just that...
Well I thought I was English/Saxon Irish, Welsh, Scott with a little Italian thrown in. I am from Turkish Algerian heritage! And 2%Australian Aboriginal.
Call your dude and tell him" we're not Irish bruh"
Who lied to you?
I enjoyed watching your video. Do the math and you will discover that you have over 1 million great grandparents in as little as 20 generations. Glad you were able to keep track of them all. You make a handsome couple and you had fun doing this.
As someone who is really into genealogy I don't think MyHeritage was the best choice. They're quite well known for giving really wrong and strange results (as they also did to me). As you're part North African, you should have gone with 23andMe as they give the most accurate results for Africans. Ancestry would have been a better choice regarding your English side.
23&Me recently updated their website. They go into specific countries as opposed to simply the region! They narrowed my 49.2% East African to Somali in particular recently which is very accurate.
Anisa Sorry but their update to me was BS and not truly accurate. Where did they suddenly get so much data in just a few months (I did my test just a few months prior to their soul called update) to have these updates? Therefore, they are not truly accurate.
I noticed myheritage is very accurate in Asian regions, but their precentages are very off. I knew that when i went in, but I just wanted to know my Asian heritage and it was the cheapest in my country. Thought I was indonesian, but nope Chinese. (it makes much more sense being chinese instead of indonesian)
For the accurate precentages I think I will do a 23andme in the future.
@Trinh Nguyen That may be the case for you but not for me. i am half Somali from my father and 49.0% Somali sounds pretty accurate as we have zero known admixture even a couple generations back. My mothers side was also accurate and correlated fairly with results from Ancestry.
The updates and new data was put together over an extended period of time, it wasn't magically created. Can't say much for what type of results Asians receive with 23andMe but for Africans it is another story.
I love these two energy and unapologetic humor 😂
It'd be interesting if Sid did this as well, I bet he'd get like 80% Afghan if Sid does it try ancestry DNA instead of the heritage one
Soniya Mushkil Most of these DNA sites aren't very advanced when it comes to the middle east/central and east asia/africa. So only it'll probably just come back as East Asian whether he's afghan of pakistani
Maybe but it would be interesting to see what European ethnicities a Pathan might have because so many empires have come to Afghanistan, Sid may have some greek in him or another European Country.
Soniya Mushkil Most DNA result companies only go 500 years back.
maybe some greek too^^ who knows
I did that test too. I'm a Pashtun from Afghanistan and the results showed me that I'm from central Asia, but I have European roots too!
Idk if someone of my ancestors was an European but my grandpa had a very light skin and green eyes but that's not rare in Afghanistan.
I'm 79% central Asian (Persian, Afghan) 18% European and 3% other ethnicities.
An absolutely beautiful couple. How pleasant. Thanks for sharing.
Morocco,Tunisia,Libya and Algeria are together called Maghreb bc they have same culture and bc they are originally all together ( Berber culture) and Egypt count as part of the Middle East, bc of the culture and so on , look it up!
Fiona Vlogs not libya
Moha78 ValFourre libya have berber culture too like origanlly , look it up ! Search on Google ’’ maghreb union ’’
Moha78 ValFourre if you look at these country there tradition clothes look like each other and food is the same Cuz they are orginally from berber culture ... Im libyan berber and Im also black libyan !!!
No. North Africa is North Africa. Maghrebi Berber area conquered by Arabs, and Arabized, but not actually Arabs historically. Only maybe Egypt is both North African and Middle or Near East. But definitely NOT all of North Africa. Even Egypt is only 15% or 20% Arab, although I realize that when the Copts lost their Christian faith and their Egyptian language to Islam and Arabic, they gradually became known as "Arabs." But their DNA would not show up as Middle Eastern, or not heavily so.
israelpiper i know and Im talking about maghreb berber . But Eygpt is considerd a part of middle East bc of the culture and bc they are more arab ! They are still north africans but apart of the middle East , you Can go and look it up
Giving me such a positive view of a middle eastern relationship!!
You guys are such a beautiful and funny couple! Love your sense of humour 😊 and for all those commenting about not knowing what Iberian is or where, that's pretty normal for people in the UK. We would just be familiar with that area being Spain and Portugal. Doesn't mean we're dumb!
I found this by accident. Glad I did. Y'all are a funny. I can't wait to get my DNA tested. I have seen other videos of DNA tests. Some are quite hilarious.
This video cracked me up lol 😂 such a cute video! 💕💖👍
Loool love how Dinas dad doesn’t answer Dinas call but he answers Sids
I enjoyed watching your video clip, thanks for sharing! :-)
He said like Vicky Woah im dead 😂😂😂!!!
I’ve sent mine out and yours isn’t boring I love how it’s mixed and varied. I think most people go into more detail when they explain it but Sid needs to do one bc Pakistan is only like 60 years old he’s def not only Pakistani lol
Sid's family are Pathan Pakistanis, so at some point they would've come to the region from Afghanistan.
And just nitpicking here, but Pakistan is 70 (almost 71) years old, not 60.
Yeah I know I cba to look up how old lol just know it's not that old haha
Such a dumb thing to say theyre from that region. India is named after the east indian company their the same age as Pakistan as a state. The okdest indus valley civ is in pakistan
"We're not Egyptian bro" LOOOL Dina had me dying when she phoned her dad 🤣😂
"I had a little Google..." That was soooo cute.
This is a really beautiful couple. God bless you!
Dina, I love your wit, style, intelligence
im obsesses with ur makeup ! its a flashback to old dina, or might be the hijab style
Iberian is Spain and Portugal
23andme tells you a lot more and in extreme detail than this. and its only for 79.20 dollars which will be like 58.26 pounds precicely...... Try it out, please! this was just such a short video with no detail
Mariam Kashif oh wow in USA it’s $23 at the drug store
nice:D
Its $23 at the store and then you have to pay the processing and testing so it's about $79-99 depending if there's a sale.
In the UK, it costs £79.99. not including shipping.
As long as you don't want deep African, it can show you well.
I recently discovered that my DNA is an off shoot of the rare, wiley, 5 toed, burrowing Yak. I hope this doesn't negatively affect my credit score.
like, whats up with your education system britain?
Accept my apologies on behalf of Britain. We're not all this dumb.
we aint all inbred
Mohammeds...
I can safely say that we are not all this uneducated.
Shush the whole world ask that about North American education system.
*Mafish Masr...Mafish Turkey 😂😂😂😂 her pronunciation had me rolling*
Their couple dynamic is goals
“...WE’RE NOT EGYPTIAN BRUV!!!”
I’d have loved to see Dina’s dads reaction to that messsage 😆
“We’re not Egyptian brooooo” phahahahahah😂😂😭😭
