If so, please help me. German and Italian as well as all other european language are called indo aryan languages (beside basque). It is said, that we europeans and eastern indoaryan languages are close related in a common ancestor and some basic words are similar. I´m very interested int his and would like to ask if someone can name me the sanskrit or farsi versions of some german words so i can see how similar they are?

No they are not(certainly not by linguists). They are called Indo-European. It is the languages of the Indo-European family in India that are called Indo-Aryan

The only Indo-Aryan language spoken in Europe is the language spoken by gypsies/Romas.

The very first common ancestral language of all the regions you mentioned was the proto-indo-european.

Many German words have cognates in Sanskrit and many Indian languages. Pitr->Vater, Bhratr->Bruder, and so on. The word 'Navy' comes from Sanskrit "Nau" for boat/ship. The similarities are too many to be simply listed.

"Deva" in Indian languages and "Dei" in Latin and European languages come from the proto-Indo European. "Jupiter" comes from "Zeus Pater", and Zeus as well as Pater share a common root with Deva and Pitr. (Pita for father in hindi.)

This shows the branching of proto-indo-european later on. As you can see, Indo-European became Indo-European which split into Indo-Aryan and Iranic, and the Indian part changed into Vedic Sanskrit, and then to today's North Indian languages.:

Those aren't commonly used words in Sanskrit language, infact many of us hadn't heard about most of the words you wrote.

i know a gypsy word "auri" means "go out" or "outside". I heard "auri jan" too.

Does it ring any bells or sound familiar?

i think you have been kicked out multiple times :lol:

On Serious note never heard such word. Could possibly be tribal language as what i have read that these people were tribal. Many tribal languages in India has no resemblance to Sanskrit or Hindi.
