Ever wanted to travel back in time? Talk to a Lithuanian!

“Anyone wishing to hear how Indo-Europeans spoke should come and listen to a Lithuanian peasant.” – Antoine Meillet (1886-1936)
Now this is quite a statement to make and it might come as a bit of a surprise since Lithuania is a fairly small country, which has been on and off the world map for ages. Nevertheless, despite the numerous political and geographical changes, occupations and harsh cultural repressions, one thing remained quite constant – the Lithuanian language.
Lithuanian is indeed quite ancient. In fact, many linguists consider it to be the most archaic surviving Indo-European language. It belongs to the Baltic branch like Latvian (yes, we are not Slavs) and has close ties with Latin, Ancient Greek and Sanscrit, and is valuable while trying to reconstruct the Proto-Indo-European language.
Just have a look at these few examples:
English Sanskrit Lithuanian
SON sunus sūnus
SHEEP avis avis
SOLE padas padas
MAN viras vyras
SMOKE dhumas dūmas
FIRE agnis ugnis
GOD deva dievas
The archaic aspect of the Lithuanian language is not restricted merely to these coincidences, one might say, Lithuanian has also preserved an elaborate grammatical structure.
It is a synthetic language, meaning that the relations in a sentence are expressed by word endings (opposite to an analytic language, like English, where the unbound morphemes and word order do the main job).
Lithuanian has 7 main cases (nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, instrumental, locative, and vocative) as well as illative which is dialectal and allative (reduced to adverbs). A noun, for example, has 5 declensions (different patterns of inflection). We decline other parts of speech as well.
If I haven’t scared you enough yet, I should also mention that Lithuanian has 13 participles, whereas English has 2. Let’s take a simple verb valgyti (‘to eat’) as an example:
valgąs — ‘the one who is eating’ (present active participle)
valgęs — ‘the one who ate; has eaten; was eating’ (past active participle)
valgydavęs — ‘the one who used to eat’ (frequentative past active participle)
valgysiąs — ‘the one who will be eating’ (future active participle)
valgomas — ‘something that is being eaten’ (present passive participle)
valgytas — ‘something that has been eaten’ (past passive participle)
valgysimas — ‘something which will be eaten’ (future passive participle)
valgant — ‘while eating’ (adverbial present active participle)
valgius — ‘after having eaten’ (adverbial past active participle)
valgydavus — ‘after having eaten repeatedly’ (adverbial frequentative past active participle)
valgysiant — ‘having to eat’ (adverbial future active participle)
valgydamas — ‘eating’ (special adverbial present active participle)
valgytinas — ‘something to be eaten’ (participle of necessity)
Of course, a person who would like to learn Lithuanian could easily do without most of them, but I think if one has at least a slightest interest in linguistics, it is rather more fascinating than exhausting to see how, just by adding different morphemes to a root, a single word can contain so much different information.
However, we do make our lives easier since we do not have articles like German, neither our tense system is that difficult. Pronunciation is fairly easy as well. We have 32 letters in our alphabet which is Latin based with some extra diacritical symbol additions, and words are read the way they are written (it is nothing like French, for example, where out of an 8 letter word you pronounce 3 letters in a way you would not expect them to sound).
Still, once in a cafeteria, where I heard two foreigners speaking Lithuanian to each other, for an obvious reason I couldn’t help myself approaching them and asking…why..?!
It might be because, after all, it is….a cute language.
As Benjamin W. Dwight, in the book Modern Philology, says: “Of all European languages, the Lithuanian has the greatest number of affectionate and diminutive terms, more than the Spanish or Italian, even more than Russian, and they can be multiplied almost indefinitely by adding them to verbs and adverbs as well as adjectives and nouns. If the value of a nation in the total sum humanity were to be measured by the beauty of its language, the Lithuanian ought to have the first place among the nations of Europe.”
In a nutshell, there are various theories on the origin and development of languages, and the scholarly work in this field resembles a never-ending story. In case of the Lithuanian language, the work is quite challenging since the first Lithuanian book was published only in 1547 (we insisted on hugging trees and worshipping sun and wind, so literacy along with Christianity came quite late). The language itself has been banned and looked down upon during various times but it persisted with the help of book smugglers, secret schools and folklore. I would say that the fact that, even having endured all these struggles, Lithuanian is thought to be the most conservative living Indo-European language proves that collective memory is a hell of a thing.

FIVE CONDITIONS OF PARTITION
(“PANCH SHEEL” OF NEHRU)
HINDU RESPONSE was Surrender unconditional, and RUN.
Response by Indian Armed Forces: ZERO. They, too, packed up in utmost haste and vanished from their own territory.
In 1940 we had All-India Congress Party in the league with All-India Muslim League that was suddenly thrown into limelight by the British rulers who believed in the policy of “Divide & Rule”.
It was the separatist Muslims who had thought of creating an Islamic country within India as early as 1936 when a few Muslim students in London coined the word “Pakistan”. To the discredit of Hindu leaders none took a serious note of the new destructive idea that started growing rapidly like poisonous weed among the Indian Muslims.
After the end of World War 2 in August 1945 the seed had grown full height into a poisonous tree.
While senile “Bapu” MK Gandhi lived in his own make-believe unrealistic world of “Hindu-Muslim Bhai Bhai”, it was cunning Jawaharlal Nehru who stepped in the vacuum and began to seriously represent India at the so-called “Independence” talks that ended in PARTITION, that is, the mutilation of (Akhand) Bharat.
Nehru’s conduct needs a closer scrutiny. That he never mentioned to Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the leader of Indian Muslims, “United We Stand, Divided We Fall,”, is no more a mystery. Nehru was literally the “Son of a Mohammed” himself, and his job was tough and dangerous: to destroy the Hindu nation from within by agreeing to break up India while at the same time projecting himself as a champion of Secularism and an indomitable freedom fighter. Hindus swallowed his High Treason hook line and sinker. None pointed finger of betrayal or treason at him. Such were the slavish subservient times!
Hindus have never dared to look at their rulers with a critical eye since the first Hindu critic had his eyes gouged out before being beheaded in public by the Mohammedan invaders from Arabia in 712 AD. Thereafter it was the British who shot and hanged the critics of regime in their thousands. Thus a tradition set in to blindly follow the one in front like the sheep approaching the edge of the precipice.
How wide awake could the Hindu nation have been in 1940’s can be judged even today in 2012 AD, from their dog like loyalty towards, and blind faith, in the corrupt anti national Italian born Sonia Maino Gandhi who is called the “uncrowned Empress of Hindusthan”.
Nehru himself had described the state of patriotism and awareness of the Hindus more accurately than anyone else. When an aide pointed out the possibility of a patriot firing a shot at him if he agreed to Partition, he quipped, “Hindus will not only accept Partition but also celebrate it, giving me the credit for their Independence!” The aide was left speechless.
Haven’t we often wondered as to what the terms and conditions of Partition really were? Shame, if we haven’t!
“We wish there were some, or at least one!”, replied a Hindu professor of history.
And what would that have been if there was to be just ONE condition?
“Expel the devils lock stock and Koran from Partitioned India,” said his wife instantly as if by reflex action.
But there were conditions, though not from Nehru or Gandhi, the leaders of Hindusthan and the sons of soil, but from the leader of the MUSLIMS, Mohammed Ali Jinnah.
Offensive and preposterous though they were, our perennial ENEMY met with no resistance, challenge or fight from the HINDU side.
Neither Nehru nor Gandhi mentioned exchange of population or Referendum. Neither did they demand time to comprehend the future implications of Partition for the Muslims in Bharat and the Hindus who would be trapped in Pakistan, or, merely to think it over.
The conditions that were then dictated were fully backed and endorsed by Britain, our colonial master, and, astonishingly, accepted by Gandhi, Nehru and their “All-India Congress Party” that claimed to represent ALL the Indians throughout the country-from Kashmir to Kerala and from Khyber to Chittagong.
Demoralised Hindu & Sikh leaders, who became even more self-negating and self-sacrificing “secular goats” under Gandhi’s influence, held their breath while cancer eaten “skeleton” of Mohammed Ali Jinnah proclaimed his conditions, one by one. (Jinnah died an agonising death in Karachi on 11 September 1948, just over a year after Pakistan’s creation. We ought to reflect on his company in Hell.)
At that critical juncture in our history Jawaharlal Nehru was correctly noticed by some smart Hindus to be the illegitimate son of a Muslim, the secret agent of Anglo-Islamic Axis, who stood solidly on the side of Jinnah.
Nehru never uttered a single word to support “Akhand Bharat” as if our ancient land of Vedas and wisdom was a mere rag bag. With Nehru turned into an enemy, the full brunt of fighting Partition fell on “Bapu” Gandhi who had already shown his commitment to non-violence, conciliation, appeasement and, therefore, unconditional surrender.
This put the Hindus in extremely vulnerable and dangerous position. Mohammed Ali Jinnah had his Pakistan in his hand and our Hindusthan under his foot.
Emboldened by British support, Jinnah’s dictation to all the Hindu leaders seemed like one determined cat addressing the vast assembly of rats.
FIVE CONDITIONS OF PARTITION:
1. LOCAL (not overall) MAJORITY. “Wherever we are in majority that territory will belong to our Rasul Allah Mohammed of Mecca, in perpetuity. You will surrender all that land unconditionally.”
“Yes, Sir, we agree. Pray carry on,” said Gandhi and Nehru, listening meekly.
2. CONSTITUTION
“For those territories that you surrender we shall write up, and enforce, ISLAMIC Constitution that will be based on the teachings of KORAN. We shall treat all the KAFIRS, i.e., Non Muslims, as prescribed in The Book.”
“Yes, Sir, we agree. Pray carry on,” said Gandhi and Nehru meekly, trembling while listening.
3. HOLOCAUST OF HINDUS.
We reserve the right to carry out total ethnic cleansing of Hindus and Sikhs by murdering, abducting, raping millions and expelling tens of millions from their homes, degrading them in our ISLAMIC Pakistan by denying them EQUALITY with the Muslims who will be free to rape a non-Muslim female and if she complains, she will be required to produce FOUR male witnesses to support her accusation. You will watch like the sheep in abattoir your fellow Hindus killed in Kashmir, East Bengal, Sindh, even Uganda and Fiji, but do nothing while silently waiting for your own turn. In the case of all mixed marriages, the non-Muslim spouse will embrace Islam at once, or face DEATH.”
“Yes, Sir, we agree. Pray carry on,” said Gandhi and Nehru meekly, listening.
4. SPECIAL RIGHTS FOR MUSLIMS IN “BROKEN” BHARAT
“Thou shalt not touch the whiskers of a Mohammed in Hindusthan. Your government will undertake to safeguard life and property of each and every Muslim citizen while we reserve the right to do ethnic cleansing in accordance with the Will of Allah. In cinemas NO Hindu actor will be seen doing any love scene or dance with a Muslim actress while Muslim actors will have full freedom to dance, kiss, play, strip & bare (naked) any Hindu actress.”
“Yes, Sir, we agree. Pray, hurry up. We need to start breathing.” said Gandhi and Nehru meekly, holding their breath.
5. TERRITORIAL ENCROACHMENT. Finally let it be clear upon you that any territory or land that is once under the foot of Mohammed (i.e., “Islamic”), will belong to MOHAMMED of MECCA in perpetuity. Any territory or land that is once ours will never be yours. Accordingly, not only West Pakistan but also East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and any part of Kashmir captured by us, will remain ISLAMIC for ever.”
“Yes, Sir, we agree. Thank you,” said Gandhi and Nehru, mighty relieved that the Islamic “PANCHSHEEL” had come to an end and they could breathe normally once again.
YES, the lives of our despicable cowardly “netas” had been spared though MILLIONS of ordinary citizens of Bharat lost theirs as a direct result of “buying peace” from the Devil.
It was like Chamberlain’s “Peace with Honour” agreement with HITLER in 1938.
Hindusthan, known as “Bharat Mata”, or “Mother India”, shrank in size and acquired her most disgusting map outline. Nehru was an accomplice while Gandhi had “bought” his peace. The new “Islamic” border sliced through the grand provinces, BENGAL and PUNJAB, and the Princely State of JAMMU & KASHMIR.
Dear honourable & patriotic citizens of Bharat and NRI’s across the world, this then is the Truth, nothing else but the TRUTH, behind that word “Independence” that the Government of India, especially “All-India Congress Party” and all those who form part of the EVIL AXIS of “Italy, Islam, Nehru Dynasty & the Hindu slaves” celebrate year after year on August 15.
It is up to us (and our genuine leaders) to encourage the entire brainwashed and demoralised nation to become bold and brave in order to revive our stand on “Akhand Bharat”.
It is up to us to open our eyes and see the Truth. It is up to us to demand a TRIAL of Jinnah, Nehru and Gandhi for HIGH TREASON. Such trial can never be time barred like the trial of Bofors Chor.
It is up to the PEOPLE of India to unite and then become a MIGHTY FORCE to reckon with.
Shedding the traits of “jackals” but acquiring the guts of “lions” we all should step forward and exterminate the anti Hindu, anti secular and anti national “vermin” who have been ruling and fooling our great nation of one billion since the Day of Partition in 1947.
Partition was the DEATH of our cherished “Akhand Bharat” (Divine Mother India).
Who on earth is such despicable scum (“ZALEEL”) to “celebrate” the death of his mother?
Accordingly, on August 15 next, there should be nationwide BLACK FLAG rallies and black ribbons to remind us of the worst defeat and surrender in our history, and then to rejuvenate the supine nation to recover the surrendered territory and march towards the goal of “RAAM RAAJYA”.
PS: WE INVITE THE “INDIAN” MUSLIMS TO UNITE, DEMONSTRATE PATRIOTISM AND “INVADE” PAKISTAN & BANGLADESH BY LITERATURE, IN ORDER TO RESTORE “AKHAND BHARAT”(PRE-PARTITION INDIA).
