Etymological Revolution: How Albanian is Redefining the Roots of 'Able'.

The Derived Etymologies of 'Able': A Big Lie?

The English word 'able' means having the power, ability, means, or opportunity to do something. Interestingly, its definition mirrors the etymology of the English verb 'to do,' which is eerily similar to the Albanian verb 'e bej' (to do). This connection is not mere coincidence; it's a testament to the shared linguistic roots of English and Albanian.

Conventional etymology claims that 'able' comes from Latin 'habilism,' 'habilis,' and the verb 'habere,' meaning 'to hold.' However, this explanation is flawed, as it relies on a weak semantic connection between 'able' and 'hold.' In contrast, the Albanian verb 'bëj' (to do, make) has a direct and robust connection with the meaning of 'able.'
The development of 'able' can be traced back to the Albanian phrase 'E BEI ​​' (I can do it), where the transformation from 'i' to 'j' to 'l' is consistent with the phonetic shifts seen in Albanian words like 'gojë' (mouth) and 'gol' (mouth). The primary form 'A BE' (I can do it) is the true source of 'habere,' with 'A BI' being its adjectival form.
The Albanian language holds the key to unlocking the true etymology of 'able.' Its verb 'bi' (Cham dialect) and 'be' (Tosk dialect), meaning 'to do, make,' are the roots of both English and Latin words. However, ideological biases in etymology have obscured this connection, preventing a deeper understanding of language development.
It's essential to approach language history with an open mind, acknowledging the complexity of linguistic evolution and the possibility of unexpected connections. The Albanian language challenges conventional etymologies, demanding a revision of existing theories. As we rediscover and reinterpret language history, the Albanian language will play a crucial role in reshaping the field of etymology.

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
