The people of the Balkans came from the one on the left and the rest from the right.

You need to think a little. Από πατώ are the primary words of Αποπατώ a compound word made up of two Greek words, still in usage, both in their primary as well as their compound form in the Greek language. How does that word become a "Cypriot" word is beyond me.

As for Lafazanis it is a Turkish word in daily usage. What makes it Cypriot?

You put up a mish mash of Greek, Turkish and Italian words in the corrupt form used in a dialect and you think you invented a language. Hopefully this is a wind up.

The only wind up is YOU; trying to convince readers that nothing ever came from Cyprus and that everything is imported. The Cypriots didn’t speak, didn’t read, didn’t write, they didn’t do anything… just stood there with a blank stare waiting for your highness to arrive!

If I didn’t know you’re a conniving lawyer (and a Greek one at that) I’d say you’re trying to insult us! :lol:

Like I said, when Cypriots became enlightened no such modern things as "Italians", "Turks" or "Greeks" existed…

In fact they wouldn’t exist for at least another TWO MILLENNIUMS! :wink:

The timeline speaks for itself...

Did you miss this: http://www.ancientscripts.com/linearb.html

If by "Cypriots" you mean people who lived in what we now call "Cyprus" then in the same way there were people who lived in what is now called "Italy", "Greece" and "Turkey" 1000s of years earlier. But people who lived 1000s of years ago in what we NOW call "Turkey" did not call themselves "Turks", they were NOT "Turks" and their language had nothing to do with Turkish. Same with those people who came to Cyprus before the Greeks. They did not call themselves "Cypriots" and their language has NOTHING to do with ours!!!

Cyprus History lesson #1:

Have a good look at the Amarna tablet EA#35 (1350s – 1330s BC)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amarna_letter_EA_35

All tablets labeled by archeologists EA#33 through EA#40 were sent from the kingdom of Cyprus to various neighbours and as can be seen there's no Greek on them whatsoever!

This is EVIDENCE not mythological diarrhea!

Learn more about these tablets...

So how does this “fit in” with your “Mycenaean” fairytales? :lol:

It doesn't!

Ye Gods ..whats this gobblegook you're all trying to force upon us.
All true Cypriots (well maybe not sotos) should know the true Cypriot language is the queens ( Elizabeth that is not GR) English.
A Small pocket of such speakers still exist today in British protectorate of Peyia. Here you can still hear the dulcet tones of the mother tongue on a daily basis.

incncluding such gems as..

"its too bloody hot"

"bloody Cypriot drivers"

"Animal bloody cruelty"

and "which of you bastards poisoned my cat"

its all there and patently obvious should you only open your ears

Times are changing dear friends.

When you see and hear a couple of kids ( I'm not joking) whiter than snow, pure blonde and total blue eyed, speak Cypriot better and more pronounced than yourself then you know the times are changing...
This at a local kiosk in Peyia Paphos a few weeks ago.
