What are the current thoughts on the IE Urheimat? Is the Ukraine hypothesis still supreme? The consensus seems to be that some borrowings from proto-semetic definitely happened, such as the word for seven from Semetic saba'. How frequent were these types of borrowings from what we can tell, and what do they imply about PIE's relationship with proto-Semetic?
