Visigoth Mixed Slav Girona

[Lemgrant]

What's your ancestry?

I know about Ukrainian-Russian + Greek and Jewish (these two were speculation but confirmed with 23andme). Mtdna U4b is probably Germanic according to 23andme.

I have doubts about that visigoth sample, it's not enough germanic to be visigoth

[Dick]

Do you have evidence for that?

Could be from Saxons. They were probably more celtic(western) autosmally than germanic(northern). Also there are more and more new ydna results that show that. There was an estimated 50,000 Saxons that emigrated, including women children and were all assimilated. The locals hated them because they were treated like Royalty by the King. One privilege that the Saxons enjoyed made them especially unpopular with their neighbors - they had to right to seize anything they needed from any house without providing compensation. This practice of seizure and the Saxon's polite way of coming into a house with the word bitte (please) and leaving with the word danke (thanks), led to the creation of the Serbian word to describe their behavior - bitange, meaning "saucy," "prudish," and "arrogant persons" at same time.

they also probably brought the potato to the Balkans. Krompir is from the word Gromper(ground pear) which is specifically from the Luxembourgish dialect

Something about vegetables, Goths and Balkans...

If I have to say more ?

In case of Russsia it is probably Varangian borrowing, but for Balkans clearly Gothic with origin of the word in Scandinavia obviously.

Original Celtic is winwnsyn in Welsh as we see on the map... Any Slav could say such horrible word

Right, maybe the word leek was brought to England with the Angles
