Franz,
I'm sick and tired of stating my "one single issue" (that language
spoken as recently as the Magdalenian period cannot have had
fundamental characteristics so utterly different from any
characteristics known to human language or the human language ability)
and having you ignore that simple point. I will not continue to do it.
When I am sick from sci.lang I listen to a song
from the new CD "not too late" by Norah Jones.
I like her long melodic lines. Her new songs
are seemingly simple, but open up a space
and make me breath again, when I am choked
by the narrowness in this forum. Norah Jones
lives in New York. You may have seen her.
Listen to her CD, or another CD that helps
you get away from all this here. You are more
into classical music, and you may have pieces
that help you free yourself. -- When you are
calm again you may point out what fundamental
characteristics of language are missing in my
reconstruction of the language I call Magdalenian,
or better: one fundamental characteristic that
is missing in your opinion.
I have no idea what's "missing" from Magdalenian, since we have no
information about Magdalenian other than some vocabulary items.
What is _present_ in Magdalenian that is not present in any human
language is the property that every word consists of a consonant, a
vowel, and a consonant, and these three elements can be permuted so as
to provide semantic variations.
