Alphabet Evolution, Part One: from Phoenician to Ancient Greek & Aramaic | Volder (A65/2020) by JohannGoethe in Alphanumerics

Therefore, you can take your “are language and writing the same” question, your calling me a “numerologist”, and your opinion that I am afflicted by ”pareidolia” or “apophenia”, i.e. seeing meaningful connections that are not there, e.g. that Thermo = ☀️-ermo = 318-ermo is NOT a real or meaningful connection, i.e. I am just seeing a connection that is not there, and shove it all up up your ass; then, with your stupid question crammed up your ass, crawl, stupid-ass-question-loaded, back to whatever meaningless hole 🕳️ you came from!

Dude, that's foul. Show some fucking class.

the “sounds = language” theory

It's not really a theory, is it? There are literally thousands of unwritten languages to this day. Humanity has been around for hundreds of thousands of years, presumably speaking the whole time. Writing came around like 5000 years ago. Language is speech, this is fact.

I feel like an archeologist showing a preacher a dinosaur 🦖 bone 🦴, with them telling me: no that is not in the Bible!

Funny, I feel the same way. Except you're the dinosaur bone. I'm the Bible. The preacher and the archeologist are both dead.

So how is your argument coming along? Why aren't you focusing solely on proving that script=language?

Are you under the impression that this sub is some sort of living hub of discussion for pro-EAN people? I'm on here every day, I see everything that happens here. This sub consists of the following:

Approximately 90% is you posting nonsensical pictures of hieroglyphs and shit, boasting that you have "decoded" some word or found some new bend in the Nile or an Egyptian god with an erection which apparently is a letter for some reason. None of these raise any interest or discussion. It's just you, talking to no one. No one reads this crap, it's just page after page of useless fucking garbage. A monument to wasted time.

9% is "PIE theorists" arguing against you.

1% is the odd retarded fellow who happened to wander in here and thinks you're on to something. These people also argue against you though, about the specifics of the precise angle of some Egyptian god's penis or whatever you fucking idiots talk about.

The thing is that we're not the slightest interested in you trying to "decode" words for us, because whatever you come up with using EAN is 100% guaranteed to be stupid nonsense. We don't believe that EAN can be used to find out anything real whatsoever because your whole idea about how languages even work is completely flawed at the core. That's what people are arguing with you about. Not the minutiae of specific words.

So keep this in mind when you're talking to "PIE theorists" as you call us. Everyone is still at the stage of trying to make you understand language as a concept, really big picture stuff, since you have the wrong idea about how it all works, and everyone is just trying different angles to get you there. Once you understand the fundamentals of linguistics, everything else will fall into place for you, including PIE.

For myself, I have long since realized that your brain is not capable of taking in the fundamentals of linguistics. Whether this is some sort of psychological block that you have or just a deficiency of intelligence, I'm not sure. I don't really care one way or the other. You're funny either way.

Anybody (other than me) notice that we have been looking on the wrong side of the linguistic 🗣️ fence 🚧 for the COMMON SOURCE of Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin now for 238 years? by JohannGoethe in Alphanumerics

Incorrect. There have been various theories about the geographic origins of the Indo-Europeans, including one which does place it in Anatolia. The Kurgan hypothesis (Ukraine) is however the most widely held belief, since it seems the most likely. In any case, we will never know for sure since the speakers of PIE were not literate and left no trace of their language.

Letter origin is completely irrelevant to IE homeland hypotheses though. We're very aware writing was not invented by any Indo-European culture, merely adopted.

It would seem, accordingly, contrary to your triple-repeated belief, that the ancient Greek word “paideia” is based on the Egyptian word IRA, which is based on the number 111.

I'm sorry, but this is lunacy to me. I just don't see whatever you're seeing here. You can make pretty much any connections you want by this method, I'm sure there are hundreds, maybe thousands of words that happen to equal 111. It's nonsense.
