The Etymology of Language Construction: A Critical Perspective The etymologies provided by modern linguists often fail to capture the essence of language construction. This limitation is evident when examining the word for "mouth" across various languages. According to traditional etymology, the word of the ancient Greek "stóma," derived from Proto-Indo-European "*stomn̥" or "*stomen-" ("mouth, muzzle"). However, the Albanian language reveals a more fundamental code underlying word construction. In Albanian, the word for "mouth" is "goj(ë)" in the standard language, "golë" in the Cham dialect, and "gjoj" in the Geg dialect of the Mat region.  A closer examination of these words exposes a deeper structural explanation: Gjë-O = gojë/gol(ë), which translates to "O thing." This pattern is consistent across various languages, where "gjë O" corresponds to "mouth" (English),...

The word "bahçe" (garden) has long been considered a Turkish term borrowed from Persian. However, a closer examination of the word's etymology reveals a more complex and intriguing history. In this article, we will delve into the linguistic and historical context of "bahçe" and argue that its roots lie in the Albanian language. The Persian Connection: A Red Herring? The word "bahçe" is often attributed to the Persian term "bāġçe" (باغچه), which means "garden of all kinds." However, a closer examination of the word's structure and semantics reveals that the Persian connection may be a red herring. The suffix "-çe" in Turkish is often considered a diminutive suffix. However, in the context of "bāġçe," this suffix does not make logical sense. The word "bāġçe" is not a diminutive form of "bāġ" (garden), but rather a distinct term with its own semantics. The Albanian Connection: Unveiling the H...

The Serbian word "meç" (меч), meaning "sword," has long fascinated linguists and etymologists. Pronounced "meç," this term has sparked intense debate regarding its origins. This article delves into the etymological analysis of "meç," exploring its connection to Proto-Slavic, Geg Albanian, and other languages. The Serbian Ч Conundrum Before diving into the etymology of "meç," it's essential to understand the unique characteristics of the Serbian Ч (che) sound. Unlike Russian Ч, which maintains a consistent pronunciation, Serbian Ч has a natural pronunciation of the Ч suffix as Чёh (choh). This variation depends on the position of Ч within the word. When Ч appears at the end of a word, it's pronounced with a soft "h" sound, resulting in "чёh." Etymological Analysis: A Proto-Slavic Enigma Linguists have traditionally attributed the Serbian word "meç" to the imaginary Proto-Slavic *mečь. However, the or...

Kolec Topalli claims that "gëlltis" is a borrowing from Proto-Slavic *glъtiti, a word that does not exist in any Slavic dictionary. However, the etymology of this word in the Albanian language is straightforward: it originates from the meaning of "gëlltis" as passing from the mouth to the stomach or swallowing through the mouth, which is also expressed as "golë" (mouth) in the Cham dialect and "gojë" in standard Albanian. In this dialect, the word "gola" is the basic root from which this word originates. The etymological compositions are variations of Gol+fyt, Gol-fut-, Gol-tan-hy, etc., with compound words formed with Gol (mouth), hy (enter), ha/han (eat), fus (put), tan (all), and fyt (throat) being the roots of this word in different languages. Another Albanian word, "kollofit," confirms the semantics of the Albanian language itself and shares the same root as "gëlltis." This verb also originates from "gole,...

" Pan Metron Ariston ", which roughly translates from ancient Greek as "all good things in moderation", holds a fascinating secret.  However, if we examine each word individually, the meaning changes dramatically, revealing that these words did not originate from Greek. Instead, they have Albanian language roots. The word "Pan" is actually an Albanian pronoun 'pa an', meaning 'all-encompassing" or "completely". Similarly, "Metron" is derived from the Albanian phrase "me te ron", which translates to "to live". The most intriguing word, however, is "Ariston". This term originates from the Albanian phrase "A ris ton", meaning "our growth" or "fully grown", which is closely related to the concept of maturity. In Albanian, "Ariston" is easily explained as a man "grown up" or "fully grown", aligning with the current Albanian meaning of ...
