Dear Frank,
Hello. I can
understand your reaction. But belive me I am not
pulling anyone's
leg. I assure you I am not the kind of person who
would do that. In
this forum I respect all of you. I would do no
such disrespectful
behaviour to anyone. Additionally, I am sure I do
not fit any one of
your descriptions. I am very serious. The
linguistic and the
formation of words in Indo-European languages are
not what they may
appear to you or others. There seems to be a much
deeper and darker
background to them. If I may say so, most of us
have been the
victim of some very cabalistic activities since the
days of Babylon or
earlier.
Ordinarily, people
do not deal with such matters. Such works are
generally left to
mostly very honest and sincere linguists who do
their work in good
will. But somehow, there must have been some very
"all learned
and all knowing linguists" in the past that did
linguistics
differently. I just happen to doubt some of the things
that I spotted.
What you are reading in my essays are the results of
my doubts and they
are very serious indeed.
Best wishes to all,
Polat Kaya
