Note on the name DAI ALANYE Dai, pronounced [dye,] is said to be from dei, the Welsh for to shine. It might be cognate with dyaus, zeus, deus, etc, all names for the Indo-European god of the clear sky. Alanye, pronounced [ah-LAHN-yuh,] is Old Mordvinian, relating to the name of a mythical sea. Oddly enough, ancient Mordvin was landlocked, so the name might descend via racial memory of a now-lost prehistoric migration across the Arctic seas from the New World. These migrants would have been genetically similar to Polynesians, and were the first colonists of North America, driven out c.8,000 BC by newer immigrants, those peoples whom we now refer to as Indians or "Native Americans." Unlike the relationship between Old English and Modern English, Old Mordvinian is vastly different from the language of the more recent Mordvins who speak various related tongues of the Finno-Ugric family. The situation is similar to that of the ancient Macedonians, who spoke a form of Greek, and the present Macedonians, who are of Slavic stock. The provenance (philologically speaking) of Old Mordvinian is quite doubtful, although it might be a blend of an extinct Indo-European "centum" language incompletely evolved to "satem," and an unknown Finno-Ugric one. Alternatively, it might be closely related to the tongue of those original settlers from North America, or simply a branch of an extinct Siberian language group. Accepting the derivation, the name Dai Alanye might be interpreted as shining northern sea, were one poetically inclined.
