The origin of the words prey, peril, etc.

An analysis of the Geg Albanian verb "prej, prēj" (cut) and its possible connection as the word of origin of Latin and Greek roots.
I think that the Geg Albanian verb "prēj" (to cut) originates from ancient times when ancient people fell "prey" to hungry animals, where the sharp teeth of animals "prej" (cut) human flesh.
It is also not by chance that the noun "pre"(prey) and the verb "prej" have the same root formally and are semantically related to each other. This experience may have led to the development of the verb "prēj" (cut) and the noun "pre" (prey), "pref, pre, pré" (to sharp) of Geg Albanian which gave the origin of the verb "mpreh, preh" (to sharp) of the Albanian language standard, the noun "drapen", etc.


The form "prē" is the same as English "prey" which linguists think originates from Latin "praeda" which the incomplete method of comparison mistakenly derives literally "something caught before", from PIE *prai-heda-; for the first element see "prae"-; the second element is related to the second element in prehendere "to seize, " (from the PIE root *ghend- "to seize, to take". 
"Praeda" has two embrioforms of Geg Albanian "prai>prej" (cut) and " da" (divide).
The meaning and form of Geg Albanian "prēj" has been preserved almost completely in ancient "Greek."
πρῑ́ω • (prī́ō)

With its meanings "to bite, to cut, to grab with teeth."
We have only one phonetic change from "j" to "l" in the Latin word, similar to the changes seen in other Albanian words (eg, "goja" vs. "gola," "gjuh" vs. "gluh") as and only an additional "o" to the Greek word. 

This change could have resulted in giving in the Latin noun and verb "pericŭlum" and "perior" (to experience, to try), as well as in the Greek verb "peiràô" (to try), the collation method completely fails to find the first root of the word.
Also, "prēj" of Geg Albanian reflects the verb etymology of the comparative method that the word "drapën" of Geg Albanian comes from the Greek δράπανον. It's just the opposite, "drapën" comes from Gegnishtja "da" (divide) and "prej" (cut), meaning "it cuts and divides" in standarte Albanian.
The analysis of the Geg Albanian word "prēj" highlights the importance of investigating the semantic meanings of words in their first original version, which the comparison method ignores.

The Geg Albanian word "prēj" (cut) gives a clear and logical explanation for the etymology of Latin and Greek words, which may have lost their original meaning in translation or during the evolution of the language, as well as the PIE roots for these words.

Nephilim

N 'eh - Ph 'ih- L 'ee- M /  Nepheeleem Zacharia Sitchin (July 11, 1920 – October 9, 2010)  wrote the " Nephilim " (נְפִילִים) is derived from “nafàl" and means “fall". The term Nephilim occurs in Genesis 6:1-4, describing the point of time when three things began: men began to increase in number, came into existence the daughters of men , and the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. Is the "nephillim" really only a Hebrew word? That question is very subtle, however I think it has been more a limit of thinking for linguists rather than a serious argument. Let's begin first with the probable meaning the linguists think it is. We know that the " fall"  in every language means moving downward from a higher position involuntarily, usually by an accident, which maybe was the reason why Michael S.

Total positional tolerance at material condition

Total positional tolerance at material condition (Hole) Suppose the Ø 1.005 / 1.010 hole is inspected and there are six parts with different ID dimensions. Their actual sizes checked with run out methods give that their actual axis is to be .006” over and up from the true position even though they have different actual ID’s. We want to know which part is within true position tolerance at MMC. Parts to be acceptable require some calculation when is used the run out method.             In GD&T, maximum material condition (MMC) refers to a hole that contains the greatest amount of material.             To understand and memorize simply and logically the concept, I suppose that you have a part designed as a square with one hole in the center, Ø 1.005 / 1.010 . You have produced just 5 parts and measured their holes. The hole of part #1 is on the low side of its tolerance Ø 1.005" and the hole of part #5 is on high side of its tolerance Ø 1.010". Here is the question: W

Word creation. The "D" letter origin and the "D" pictogram rule of the word creation.

  In this article I will cover  the origin of the letter  D letter, and the pictogram concept of the word creation.  It was my first discovery of the word creation. In this blog I will give my discoveries, the rules of word creation of the European languages. Multiple theories exist as to how language first originated. Nobody is sure which one is true. Certified Translations Get Pricing Order Translation What is the Oldest Language in the World? There are over 7,000 languages in the world. Could there have been a time on the earth that we all spoke one language? If so, what is the oldest language in the world?  So what was the first language?  Discovering the first language that people spoke is difficult because so many languages died and were considered lost in history. However, ancient languages still survive until today; these languages may have been transformed a lot but their old origins may be traceable. Written languages existed but this does not denote how long people spoke be
