Thanks for the clarification & suggestion and glad to know that you still maintain that demeanour Now if indra and thor are the cognates of greek and latin words and share the "same ultimate sources" as those words, what could be the ultimate source( PIE you would say?)? And could you point out the sources for the cognates of both the words. Laters !!
