Where do words come from?

In this paper the author argues that all languages are related to each other as much (or as little) as the speakers of these languages are related to each other and that typological similarity does not imply that languages are genetically related (i.e. Finnish is neither Altaic nor Uralic, but Germanic). He stresses the significance of the quality of sounds and the 'protosyllables' of language, and shows how the structure of the earliest possible protolanguage can be theoretically tested in two ways - through an investigation into the quality of sounds with protosyllables and by 'opening up' of words through the significance and similarities among syllables with comparisons between languages. The core of his research is that every word includes both a function and a metaphor of its meaning, thus e.g. in the Finnish language the word 'jaa'(ice) means 'to stay': 'jaa jaa' is 'ice stays'. In referring to the latter, the Swedish word for 'ice' - is - has its origin in the English verb 'is' and the PIE word *IS. In the same way as 'jaa, jaa' - *'is, is'.
