of course not. those words were CONSTRUCTED by the Benedictins, they are based on the One Language, and in fact were planted in the "Indo-European" lexicons so that much later a despot would use them to make himself a nickname. the word had to be spread all over eurasia because they couldn't know up front were the despot will be born.
Devilishly clever!
Surely the sort of thing that would be attributed rather to the Jesuits or Dominicans, no, while the Benedictines calmy distill their brandy?
Can you imagine Jesuits tossing [x] from Hebrew to Dutch as a joke?
<< ... No doubt intended as a joke, Dutch also ended up with the embarrassing deep throat scrape, written as 'g' or 'ch' such as in Scheveningen, schaap, gaan, gooien, a sound which the monks probably borrowed from Hebrew and tossed it into Dutch.
Thank goodness the Benedictines resisted these peculiar urges when they created English, which therefore became the simplest of all to learn and speak, and eventually became England's most successful export, in spite of its often ridiculous pronounciation... >>
