Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Origin of Language and Myths, Vol. 1 Some fourteen years ago I published a work entitled Myths traced to their Primary Source through Language; and though I was then, as it were, only feeling my way, I was not the less convinced that the discovery to which I laid claim was real; and, however strange it may now appear, I cannot help still entertaining the same Opinion. In that work I showed, as well as I could, how man must have first acquired the use of speech; and by the knowledge thence derived I was enabled to account for the ancient belief in the Divine origin of language, to trace letters to their birth, to discover the primary forms and meanings - hitherto unknown - of many words; and finally, to prove that the fables of the heathen mythology, as well as those of religion and ancient history, were first suggested by the several meanings that a name had at different times obtained. And I may here, perhaps, without stating too much in advance, give the reader some idea of this latter proof of the truth of my discovery. At the time the sun became a great object of worship over all the world, if one of the countless appellations by which it was then known hap pened also to designate some celebrated character of the past, the latter was at once revered as a divinity, even as the sun itself. And if his name, besides signifying the sun. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He often alludes to its radical part ark in his etymology of Konig. Littre: Then you sometimes try, I suppose, to make discoveries in language by the use of this fellow's principles? Miiller: I do so every day. Even this morning I have made two grand discoveries, etymologies of which Kavanagh himself would be proud. Littre: And by his system? Miiller: Even so. Regnier: And you could have never made them without his principles, eh? Muller: Never; nor could any one else. Messrs. Littre and Regnier: Let us hear them. Miiller: Not yet; some other time. Regnier, let us have your dream. Regnier: No; give us your etymologies first, and you shall have my dream afterwards. Muller: Well, be it so. On entering a coffee-house this morning to read the papers, the first I happened to cast my eyes on was the one styled the Sport, and not knowing the etymology of this word, I applied Kavanagh's well-known rule, which says that the I is always understood with the 0 when it is not expressed. I therefore supplied the I, which brought sport equal to spoirt, and this, from a vowel being mostly always due between two consonants, gave spoirit. And what is spoirit but spirit, the 0 having been dropped? In Latin spoiritus must have therefore preceded spirilus. What is now, let me ask, a man of sport? He is a man of spirit. But what is the meaning of spirit? It means wind, breath, and hence life. And when in French you say of a man qu'il a vScu, what do you understand? A man who has enjoyed life, a man who has had much sport in his time. Sport is therefore liveliness, and liveliness is life. Hence to be lively is to be full of life, and consequently full of spirits or sport. There is an etymology for you! Littre: Yes, it is not bad; but it is no way difficu

Download or read book Studies in Language Origins written by Jan Wind and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of language origin has fascinated people for years. Traditionally, humanists like linguists and philosophers attempted to solve it with limited success. In the last decades, however, the sciences have begun to study the same question seemingly with more success. This book is the result of the activities of a group of scholars, members of the Language Origins Society, who approach the problem not only from the viewpoint of linguistics, but also from that of anatomy, physiology, social sciences, physical anthropology, paleoanthropology, paleontology, comparative zoology, general biology, ethology, evolutionary biology and psychology. The volume thus clearly reflects the interdisciplinary approach the Language Origins Society is advocating. Since this book is the first of a series meant for the general scholar, it attempts to avoid specialist jargon. Hence it is equally useful for student courses in linguistics, social sciences, communication science, ethology, evolutionary biology and speech therapy.
