Tower of Babel #1

La Tour de Nimrod était faite de mots. {Nimrod’s Tower was made of words}
–Georges Steiner, Langage et silence, p. 58.

Tower of Babel The Bible: In the Book of GENESIS, a tower that the descendants of NOAH built. They intended that the tower would reach up to HEAVEN itself, increase their reputation, and make them like God. God prevented them from completing the tower by confusing their language so that they could no longer understand one another’s speech. From that time forward, according to the BIBLE, the peoples of the earth would be scattered, speaking different languages. “Babel” is confusion and noise. –The American Heritage Talking Dictionary (1999).

The legends telling that “once upon a time the whole earth was of one language” are found scattered all over the world. A familiar Semitic version adopted from older Sumerian tablets in cuneiform is known as the Tower of Babel, although nobody has undertaken up to now to suggest a proper name for this first common tongue of humanity which was spoken by all but nevertheless confounded by the Lord.

Since it is unique in being a universal tongue, and particularly utilized for conceptual communication between individuals surviving in hard reality, it is only fitting that it is not to be differentiated by a proper name related to any tribal community, except by its gender as the Sky*rooT United : (Fl(a / e)sh Born & Chirping Races) Mother Tongue ¹.

All past & present indicators mean that the languages advocated by almost all ―except myself— to be much older & more developed than Turkish & always taken for granted of being so, actually came into existence after genetic mutations caused by successive miscopying & mistransfer of this Mother Tongue's root signs in different directions, sometimes backward, sometimes in a spiral mode

such as 3 (1 : 2) 4, or an infinity loop

, following an order of (2 : 1) : (3 : 4).

It follows this visual phase of communication that the basic sounds of communal speeches started to develop, diversifying as the conditions in different locations changed & boosted the metamorphosis of sounds into new languages. Some off-shoots that served very effective functions in their times are not living anymore. However surprising or not, the essence of Sky*rooT United : Universal Mother Tongue, survives in her many dialects spoken today, which count around 2500 - 5000 languages world wide, naturally more apparent in those of the first generation Turkish family. Traces of her original pictoglyphs or stamp signs, in addition to some phonetic clues which slipped into other languages during their vocal evolution, remain embedded in their prolific post-visual formations like öt.ür.ük : oğh.uz (turqu+oise+aux = quetzal [bird] color) gems in our day.

When deciphered & uncensored through the use of my method, this esoteric statement in the Holy Koran “..and He hath provided for you of cattle eight kinds..” ² should read as “...Oğh

‚ the Divine Reason (alias the Lord or Lady) hath provided for you sham : heards ³ of cattle the eight kinds of fortunate sound waves (vowels)..”

¹ Sky*rooT United : (Fl(a/e)sh Born & Chirping Races) Mother Tongue, when translated into any idiom of languages spoken today, is simply “Turkish”, a term which has now been narrowed down to labeling one particular nation on earth rather than the whole phylum of warbling and speaking flesh & blood creatures, including the bird, reptile & mammalian races, which it once fully signified and was employed for.

³ sham : herd in English is a crassus from spiral reading of (y(ay)).ış.am : (oğh).id.er.gin, roughly equal to saying “hard hearing & hard-headed shes, hes & hers (= in plural, they)”, meaning “shamanist guides (shamanist sages, witch-doctors, druids and magi)” from which the word “shepherd” is derived; s-s : oğh.or in Turkish is “cattle / refugee; thirsty; routine; destination / goal; watering; a passage for such (thence exodus & oxford); water trough; holy sounds (of water ripples & satiety) / vowels of good fortune / luck; also being blind, deaf & dumb”, as preys for God’s wrath if his –or her– advice is not followed; plus “staying silent”; thence the idiom “silence is golden”. Similarly, or in Turkish meant the verb “be” & “gold (ore) / golden; throne; high place” as it means “gold” in French today.

For another equally interesting explanation of shem, read Sumerian Fallout, a passage from The 12th Planet by Zecharia Sitchin.

This is a revised portion of a longer article titled “Some Notes on the Fl(a/e)sh-Born Mother Tongue” which was based on a letter sent to Turcolog E. G. Stewart (Ottawa, Canada) on February 18, 1992, and to other names at later dates. The original article is catalogued at the Turkish National Library in Ankara.
