Help[Facts] Re: Adian
in reply to a message by Sofia
angAraka (velar n, long open A, schwa for a) is an elaboration of angAra, whose last part is cognate with coal. A bunch of Sanskrit stems with ang/ag have to do with fire, and angAraka is basically embers. It is used for Mars, so that matched.
Bembö is not recognizable as Sanskrit to me. But the title implies it may be Tibetan instead. Though Tibetan and Sanskrit today are written in related scripts, descendents of Brahmi, they are unrelated languages. I know almost nothing of the entire Tibeto-Burman family of languages.
Adyan does sound (i.e., phonotactically) Indoeuropean to me. In fact, Persian has din meaning religion (originially meaning that which is seen) whose plural adyan (From wiktionary, look under دین, I do not know where this plural form comes from) is used as a name meaning "religious".
But, I can't figure out the exact set of vowels and consonants that sound like this and will give me a Sanskrit word meaning sun ...
