日韓土耳其語(yǔ)源自中國(guó)東北

A study combining linguistic, genetic and archaeological evidence has traced the origins of the family of languages including modern Japanese, Korean, Turkish and Mongolian and the people who speak them to millet farmers who inhabited a region in northeastern China about 9,000 years ago.

一項(xiàng)綜合了語(yǔ)言學(xué)、基因?qū)W和考古學(xué)證據(jù)的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)代日語(yǔ)、韓語(yǔ)、土耳其語(yǔ)和蒙古語(yǔ)等同一語(yǔ)系的語(yǔ)言以及說(shuō)這些語(yǔ)言的人，都起源于大約 9000 年前在中國(guó)東北地區(qū)種植粟的古代農(nóng)民。

The findings detailed on Wednesday document a shared genetic ancestry for the hundreds of millions of people who speak what the researchers call Transeurasian languages across an area stretching more than 8,000 km.

該研究結(jié)果詳細(xì)記錄了在綿延8000多公里的區(qū)域內(nèi)數(shù)億人共同的基因傳承，他們使用的語(yǔ)言被研究人員稱為"泛歐亞語(yǔ)系"。該研究結(jié)果于11月10日發(fā)表。

This language family's beginnings were traced to Neolithic millet farmers in the Liao River valley, an area encompassing parts of the Chinese provinces of Liaoning and Jilin and the region of Inner Mongolia.

泛歐亞語(yǔ)系的源頭可以追溯到新石器時(shí)代位于今中國(guó)遼寧、吉林和內(nèi)蒙古三地的遼河流域種植谷子的農(nóng)民。

As these farmers moved across northeastern Asia, the descendant languages spread north and west into Siberia and the steppes and east into the Korean peninsula and over the sea to the Japanese archipelago over thousands of years.

隨著這些農(nóng)民遷移到東北亞，其后代語(yǔ)言在數(shù)千年的時(shí)間里，就隨之向北和西傳播到了西伯利亞和大草原，也向東傳播到朝鮮半島并跨過(guò)海洋到達(dá)日本群島。
