Comments by "SCINTILLAM DEI" (@scintillam_dei) on "Tracing English as far back as possible" video.
Alexander the Great's men were in western India, so they knew that Hindi and Sanskrit had a bunch of similarities with Greek. The English wannabe knight ("Sir" Jones) couldn't have been the earliest to notice. Even before Macedon rose, Persians could have noticed. As usual, the English pretend to have been the first.
