View Full Version : English/Irish are too southern shifted on EUTest?

EUtest estimates I am 100% Northern European and 100% English when that is most definitely not the case in any other test I take. Actual "pure blooded" British/Irish people will consequently get their results closer to Scandinavians. I know I fit within the English population, but as a Southern shifted outlier from my Southwestern influence. But that is not the average Englishman and my admix does not reflect the average Englishman.

"SW English, French Gascon, Welsh, a bit German, distant East Med."

I don't think you know what you are talking about since the southern English have continental French and German admixture (and I don't mean just Saxon ) and your levantine or East med is why you score 4.5 rather than 1.X or below 1.

You draw some false conclusions.
1. English people don't have ancestry from Southern France, their affinity is with the Northern (Oïl) speaking people and Germany.
2. Gascons are very much closer to Basques (Iberians) than Germans or Northern French, English have no DNA from that area.
4. Both my German and Eastern Mediterranean heritage should be no more than 1/32.
5. I'm not representative of average English people, the average is not 1/4 Southern French like I am. I still fit but as an outlier.
If this calculator claims I'm the average Englishman, then its samples are too southern and the actual British people should not be getting more Scandinavian.

Alright, the Welsh were conquered by the English and some parts of Wales are more are more Anglo-Saxon than others and you did not say where your German ancestry was from so the German and southern French etc... could come out to more d'oil.

2. Gascons are very much closer to Basques (Iberians) than Germans or Northern French, English have no DNA from that area.


4. My Eastern Mediterranean heritage should be no more than 1/32.

Alright , then the Eastern mediterenean heritage and the Iberian is making your @ a 4.X distance rather than a hyer close 1.x or 0.x distance.


5. I'm not representative of average English people, the average is not 1/4 Southern French like I am. I still fit but as an outlier.

SouthEast English people are a quarter German and 45% French and this says nothing of 'northern French d'oil' :

It does not claim you are the average Englishman. Anything below an Fst distance of 5 you can pass as a native of that population but obviously an Fst distance of like 1.X or 0.x is more 'true English' and norids are a minority population of England and Scotland.

Honestly, I'm not trying to be an asshole I just don't think you know what you are talking about which is not surprising since you are American. I'm American but not the average American mentally.

Probably. The English samples in Eurogenes calculators seem to be mostly from the South, and disproportionately from the South West, which is the most southern shifted part of the British Isles.

Right, which is the normal state of affairs when someone samples England they inevitably do it in the South whether that be SouthEast or SouthWest. It never seems to be Northern England. Also, Cornwall is the most French shifted. He has Welsh ancestry too and the Cornish and SouthWest English have more Welsh ancestry than the SouthEast.

Alright, the Welsh were conquered by the English and some parts of Wales are more are more Anglo-Saxon than others and you did not say where your German ancestry was from so the German and southern French etc... could come out to more d'oil.




Alright , then the Eastern mediterenean heritage and the Iberian is making your @ a 4.X distance rather than a hyer close 1.x or 0.x distance.



SouthEast English people are a quarter German and 45% French and this says nothing of 'northern French d'oil' :

It does not claim you are the average Englishman. Anything below an Fst distance of 5 you can pass as a native of that population but obviously an Fst distance of like 1.X or 0.x is more 'true English' and norids are a minority population of England and Scotland.

1/3 I have no idea where in Germany its from, it doesn't come out to more than 4% regardless.
2/3 I don't think YOU know what you are talking about, you don't distinguish between North and South France. England has affinity with the North, not the Basque-like South. When French is spoken of in genetic terms, Southern French is always distinguished. If an English person shows continuity with any part of France, its the Northwestern/Flemish like people. If EUtest says its normal for an Englishman to be 1/4 Basque, then its sampling from areas where its most prevalent (and a minority/outlier).
3/3 Screw you.

Probably. The English samples in Eurogenes calculators seem to be mostly from the South, and disproportionately from the South West, which is the most southern shifted part of the British Isles.

Whoever made the English samples need samples from more parts of the country, while someone from the SW is similar to my admixture, we do not represent people from the North and the East (ie the most densely populated areas of England).

1/3 I have no idea where in Germany its from, it doesn't come out to more than 4% regardless.
2/3 I don't think YOU know what you are talking about, you don't distinguish between North and South France. England has affinity with the North, not the Basque-like South. When French is spoken of in genetic terms, Southern French is always distinguished. If an English person shows continuity with any part of France, its the Northwestern/Flemish like people. If EUtest says its normal for an Englishman to be 1/4 Basque, then its sampling from areas where its most prevalent (and a minority/outlier).
3/3 Screw you.

Look at my results you fucking moron it is not southern shifted. It says I am Oracadian+Scottish+Cornish which pretty much matches my livingdna results more or less.

You asshole your female ancestors probably cheated on their husbands or something !

I agree it is southern shifted but not in the sense that he is saying it in. It is southern shifted in the English sense of the term but he is using it the continental sense of the term so he is wrong.

By Southern shifted, I didn't insinuate as Europeans, but as Britons. The people of that part of England have ancient ancestry giving them a unique signature (a modern equivalent would be to mine). Like how Southern Germans are like Irish mixed with Serbs/Romanians, despite being insular. Interestingly, my closest match on Vahaduo are Cornish people. I get comparatively low distances due to my recent ancestry spanning North and South Europe, as well as my English family having lived in America for some time and experiencing a slight divergence from Isles people.
