Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental principles of language, seeking to uncover the innate relationship between language and the natural phenomena that surround us. The author proposes that language emerged from our physical experiences and that the primary parts of speechâ"nouns, verbs, and prepositionsâ"reflect the interplay between matter and motion. Through a comparative analysis of Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin, the author argues that prepositions originally denoted spatial relations and that language adapted itself to express abstract ideas as human thought evolved. This insightful exploration sheds light on the origins of language, revealing how it mirrors the very fabric of our existence and enabling us to better understand the connection between our perceptions, thoughts, and the world we inhabit.
