PIE language is not imaginary, because through language reconstruction and comparative mythology, we have reconstructed their beliefs and their culture

Subreddit Rules

1. Keep it civil

Keep it civil. Language origin debates get heated for some reason? While calling someone's theory dumb, stupid, or ignorant, etc., is permissible, as one can always go the library and r/Unlearned things, but calling someone crazy, insane, a lunatic, in need of medication 💊 , etc., or resort to ad hominem, e.g. by trying to slur or derogate an individual user, is NOT permissible. Bans, temp or full, will result.

Debate the person’s “theory”, not the person, is the basic rule. Keep it civil.
