The N-Code: Unlocking Albanian's Unique Preposition

The N-Code: A Linguistic Analysis Introduction The Albanian language possesses a unique preposition, "në," consisting solely of the voiced form "në" of the consonant "N".

The Origins of Latin *asper: A Critical Examination

The Latin term *asper has long been debated among linguists, with traditional views linking it to Proto-Indo-European roots. However, a closer analysis reveals compelling evidence suggesting Albanian language origins. Traditional View Vladimir Orel (1998) and K. Topalli (2017) propose that "ashper" of Albanian comes from *asper of Latin, connecting it to: 1. Ancient Greek ἀσπίς (aspís, “shield”) 2. Hittite ḫasp- (“to cut”) Alternative Perspective Contrary to traditional views, evidence points to Albanian roots: 1. "a pres" (to cut) [rtc: apres> aspre>ashpre>ashper] 2. Or "a s'bër">a sper>a shper>ashper (unmake, undo), b>p. Etymological Reevaluation Linguists have also mistakenly linked "harsh" of English to "hair," overlooking semantic discrepancies. Harsh shares roots with *asper, exhibiting: 1. Rotation of words during usage 2. Drop of "p" during usage of the word. Semantic Analysis No logical connec...

Unveiling the Symbolism of Albanian Language Codes

The Albanian language possesses unique codes that reveal profound symbolism. Consider two examples: "molle" (apple) and "dardhe" (pear). Universal Truths Despite varying shapes and appearances from growth to decay, all apples share a common "O" shape. Plato would argue that this "O" shape represents the defining essence of an apple, distinguishing it from a pear. Philosophical Insights The apple embodies unity, symbolized by a single "O." Conversely, the pear represents duality, comprising two "O"s (Da-r-D'O-E). The attached "R" signifies the sun's circular motion, emphasizing the connection between "O" and "R" as pictograms. Plato's True Forms Plato would term these factors the "apple" of an apple, or its true form. The "O" shape remains constant, while physical apples change appearance during growth. This imperfection stems from their status as imitations of the t...

The Albanian Language: Unveiling the Primordial Code.

Part I : The Origins of Wheat and Language The Arban (Arbios) people first introduced wheat to the world, followed by their civilization and language. Europe's grain history began with wild grains, preceding domesticated grains, agricultural expansion, and bread production. Anatolian Origins Research by Quentin Atkinson (Science, 24 August 2012) supports the Anatolian origin of Indo-European languages. Domesticated grain cultivation emerged in Anatolia (present-day Turkey) around 10,000 years ago. Recent studies confirm Albanian as one of the oldest Indo-European languages, backing Atkinson's findings. Etymological Connections The Albanian language derives from Anatolian, with etymological ties to wheat cultivation. Language evolution parallels human development, tool creation, and population growth. Linguistic Evidenc e Albanian's unique symbolism, hidden beneath other languages, reveals its ancient roots. Phonetic changes and hierarchical spread must be considered in ling...
