@1234gone This reminds me of the Mlecchas mentioned in the Vedas. A lot of scholars are puzzled by the term because it doesn't appear to be Sanskrit; when I saw it's equivalent in Prakriti languages, it was meleka which looks like the Hebrew word melekh (or Moloch). So I've begun to suspect the word Mleccha is Semitic in origin. When the word is used as a verb, it means to speak improperly or barbarously; I can speak some Hebrew and Arabic, and while some words sound nice, Semitic languages in general are full of harsh, guttural sound effects. According to one source, the Mlecchas have disproportionately crooked noses (sound familiar?). In the Bhavishya Purana, the Mlecchas are described as the chosen people of the Kali Purusha (the demon ruler of the Kali Yuga); the historical memory of the Abrahamic religions goes back no further than the start of the transition into the Kali Yuga. It shows you even the Rishis tried to warn us about this ethnoreligious cult, and yet, we didn't listen.
