Disputatio:Alpha et Omega

Full global Greek alphabet is as follows:
Α Β Γ Δ Ε Ϝ Ϛ Ζ Η Ͱ Θ Ι Κ Λ Μ Ν Ξ Ο Π Ϻ Ϸ Ϟ Ρ Σ Τ Υ Φ Χ Ψ Ω Ͳ
It begins with Alpha, and ends with Sampi. That means that Omega in this case is not final letter, because after Omega is placed too Sampi. Due to this fact, in this case God is not only local Ionian Alpha and Omega, because He is in this case too Somebody more - global Pan-Greek Alpha and Sampi. This fact should be acknowledged by all Christians that uses global Greek Alphabet, because in this case they can diminish God by excluding Him from full range of global Greek Alphabet. Ionians were justified by their unknowledge, and Jesus only adjusted Himself to their lower level of knowledge, calling Himself as local Ionian Beginning and End. Sho was placed between San and Qoppa and was only existing Greek letter not used by Greeks, but by Bactrians that adopted Greek alphabet. 91.94.167.29 18:14, 24 Ianuarii 2008 (UTC)

Of course God is not possible to real (as reality) diminishing in any way, because He is always constant and unchangeable Infinity. God called Himself Alpha and Omega only for reason of being understood by Ionians that didn't knew missing 8 letters, because their local 24-letter Ionian alphabet beginning with Alpha and ending with Omega was locally perceived as Beginning and End. But our current knowledge about full global Greek alphabet obliges us to call Him Alpha and Sampi to express His Omnipotence without any exclusions. 87.96.63.125 18:18, 19 Martii 2008 (UTC)
It is not in the interests of an accurate and reliable encyclopaedia to misquote or change the content of any source in page titles, citations or quote boxes. Therefore it is not in our interests to rename this page "Alpha et Sampi", or whatever you are proposing. Is that OK? Harrissimo 22:40, 18 Iunii 2008 (UTC).

replies: text: :God is GLOBAL UNCONFUSED Alpha and Sampi, that includes local confused Α and Ω, А and Я, A and Z etc... Remember, that confused tongues including those used to write Bible are transitory. Of course Bible is eternal, and finally will be rewritten only in unconfused Adamic language. Our eternal goal is unconfused full Adamic language in Heaven written with unconfused full alphabet. Because first language was written without alphabet, earliest possible FullConsonant+FullVowel alphabet should be used, thus Greek, as Andrew Dalby confirmed: http://la.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disputatio_Usoris:Andrew_Dalby#Revert/Ban Catholic Private Revelation Proofs:

replies: text: ::What's so special about an alphabet with vowels and consonants? The Greek alphabet cannot be the thing you are looking for because its values are arbitrary and therefore irrational, arising from confusion of language, without God's wisdom and reason. What you want is the vowel-and-consonant alphabet that was created along lines of reason, the shapes of whose letters are designed to represent their sounds. The first example of this is Hangul, and you would do well to study it, as it is closer to your ideal of a global unconfused writing than the local confusions of the Greeks, who only invented vowels because they did not hear the consonant sounds the letters originally represented. God is light, and in Him there is no darkness or confusion at all. —Mucius Tever 23:54, 19 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

Thus you should understand Evangelium as follows: The living know that they shall die, but the dead know not anything [about need of dying again]. Hangul is as weird as Phaistos disc, because it is not purely sequential, but spiral mixed with sequential: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaistos_Disc , and has huge overhead of non-uniphonemic phoneme clusters. Adamic Proto-Indo-European was written with sentence-level ideographic script: http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Adamic_language (example: graphical picture of human riding on donkey through forest depicts sentence: "Man rides on donkey through forest"), thus using Greek alphabet is only solution to have both first alphabet joined with first language, and phonetics fully preserved at once. 207.10.232.238 07:54, 20 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: ::::::Hangul goes left and right, top and bottom, with no circular spiral motion. The original alphabet of the Greeks is more circular, going from left to right and then from right to left, reversing the letters. http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Adamic_language says that Greek is the solution because it is the first phonemic script and the ideographic script does not preserve the original phonetic features of Adamic Proto-Indo-European. By the same rule Hangul is a better solution because it is the first fully-fledged featural script designed to represent phonetic features and can preserve those features better than the Greek script. Also, the Hangul script is developed from the Phagspa script and thus from the clean offshoot Brahmi script of the Indo-Iranian languages, while the Greek and all the other alphabets of Europe are from the Phoenician which is not Indo-Iranian making it a dirty offshoot and thus it would be wholly inappropriate for the Adamic language. —Mucius Tever 12:00, 20 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: ::::::::Ah, but of course the script is derived from Phoenician. It is not from its Phoenician origin that a script is appropriate or not, but whether it is taken raw and directly—as the Greek was, with the vowels being created only from the Greeks being unable to pronounce the consonants the letters represented—or refined—as it was by the pure-offshoot Indo-Iranian languages, whose grammarians took special interest in its continued purity both in speech and writing; I am sure you are already familiar this is in fact the meaning of the word 'Sanskrit'. As the Indo-Iranian offshoots are pure, surely the script—the written part of those languages, carried by sons of Adam with the spoken part to India—must be on the same principle: fragmenting from the mother Phoenician into its Indo-Iranian offshoot, it is transformed into the Brahmic script, purified by its continued contact with the language, refined by the addition of vowel sounds being represented—though not yet separated into their own letters. Hangul is the first/earliest derivative from this new branch of writing to separate the vowels from the consonants, and its pedigree is appropriate, unlike that of Greek, whose parent Proto-Indo-Hellenic is unsuitable even for reference in restoring the Adamic language, being "reconstructed with influences from languages confused in higher degree." —Mucius Tever 00:23, 22 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

Let us correct that to "Because using a non-featural script wouldn't preserve the phonetic features of the Adamic language, the best solution would be writing the Adamic language with the earliest existing fully fledged feature-level script - the Korean alphabet."

One of the results of the Indo-European Linguistics is that Hebrew isn't an Indo-European language. Distant relationship between reconstructed language families is a field of investigation very few serious Indo-Europeanists are willing to plunge into. Notice also that, basically, Proto-Indo-European is no language in the social sense but rather a polylectal grammar fragment, an axiomatic system by which the relatedness of Indo-European languages can be demonstrated as formally necessary. --Neander 01:44, 24 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

Examples: PIE *appa-s and *amma-s (as in Pokorny and Köbler) are looking directly as cognate to Hebrew Abba and Imma. Both PIE and Hebrew pairs means accordingly Father and Mother. Much more such cognate pairs can be demonstrated between PIE and non officially IE languages, such as PIE *nena-s and Chinese niang, both meaning nanny. Anne Catherine Emmerich pointed at PIE by revealing, that Adamic is the ancestor of Bactrian, Zend and Indian - its first pure offshoots.

Non-laryngeal PIE is earliest possible reconstruction without these variable/substitute signs. All that is analyzed here: http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Adamic_language As you see, non-laryngeal PIE is earliest Anne-Catherine Emmerich compatible protolanguage, that is spelled by scientists with Latin-only spelling. Matching this condition makes respelling of non-laryngeal PIE to pure Greek alphabet absolutely possible, which is not possible for earlier reconstructions. Abovementioned flaws in earlier reconstructions debunks them as false, because some non-existent data are missing in them. Thus non-laryngeal PIE that is earliest such flawless reconstruction, wins finally as Adamic protolanguage. Adam and Eve were both unilingual by using PIE and God created them 6000 years ago in Eden near Jerusalem - six days after beginning of God's creation process. Holy Bible and Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich both clearly states that, and denying these God's Revelations is erratic.

replies: text: ::::Hittite script was not alphabetic, but syllabic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hittite_cuneiform , being always syllable-level, but never phoneme-level writing. Thus I discard it. Article mentioned by you classifies as fictional all laryngeal-featured reconstructed protolanguages, because precise value of laryngeals in these reconstructions is unknown at all, thus laryngeal descendants such as Hittite are not denied. In this way laryngeals can be treated as innovation. Anne Catherine Emmerich focuses on Indo-Iranian (Bactrian+Zend+Indian) descendants of PIE as most similar to Adamic PIE, thus traditional non-laryngeal PIE still wins as most close to her requirements. Additionally, I noticed that syllabaries (cuneiform) and featurals (hangul) both has much more Unicode signs than even fully extended Greek alphabet - first ever phoneme-level script. 207.10.232.238 17:47, 27 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: :::::You haven't said anything against syllabic writing yet—what's your reasoning? http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Adamic_language only states that ideographic scripts are unsuitable (whether sentence- or word- or syllable-level), and in your previous arguments you've only excluded Semitic writing, because it habitually omits vowels, and you say Vowels+Consonants need to be represented in the writing—but a syllabic script does represent both consonants and vowels, with the extra benefit that the same word may be written in fewer signs. Also, you have a strange definition of 'innovation'—the laryngeal values are not uncertain because they are new; they are uncertain because they are so old so little of them remains to be reconstructed, but the traces are so certain that we know that all the languages that dropped them were the innovations—and this is another point in favor of the Hittite script. (Unless perhaps you mean it is an innovation because we discovered them later? But that would be silly, like saying Pluto is an innovation over the telephone.) As for the number of Unicode points, what does it matter? The computers can handle them, and the users are shielded from them: on any decent Korean computer input you only have to type the individual jamo (which are few) and it will convert it to the appropriate Unicode signs automatically; similar is the case for the syllabaries I've used as well. —Mucius Tever 17:27, 28 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: ::::::My reasoning is in optimalization in number of signs, including Unicode range as it is. For me laryngeals were innovation as feature outside Indo-Iranian core family mostly cited by Anne Catherine Emmerich as most similar to Adamic. Non-laryngeal PIE don't breaks any of core Indo-Iranian features, and this is without adding unknown (laryngeal) phoneme variables, thus non-laryngeal PIE still wins as best Adamic proper candidate. Directly behind it exists first reconstruction with unknown (laryngeal) phoneme variables, namely laryngeal PIE. Going back further makes situation only worser. 82.177.192.205 17:41, 28 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: :::::::Hi, what is your rationale for considering a lower number of signs per word less optimal than a lower number of different signs? If it is merely difficulty of learning, remember that the signs only have to be learned once, but used often, in which a sign set that can more efficiently encode the information probably should be more optimal to a literate person. (You should probably also drop the use of Unicode as a buzzword to support your claims if, as you describe below, you are not even using it.) Anyway, about the laryngeals, take a look at the history of them. They were deduced by Saussure from languages like Indo-Iranian based on their effects—chiefly in the way ablaut works—about fifty years before the discovery of Hittite confirmed their existence. Using a Proto-Indo-European without laryngeals does break one of the core Indo-Iranian features, and would do so even if Hittite had never been discovered—you will have to find an entirely different way for different ablaut grades to work. Good luck. —Mucius Tever 21:53, 28 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: ::::::::I discarded Hangul because characters don't run purely linearly one after one, as is in Greek alphabet. We don't know exact laryngeal values, because H, H1, H2 and H3 are in fact rather like X variable in equation, than exact phoneme value. Thus non-laryngal PIE still wins, being built only from known constant elements.

text: ::::::::Writing laryngeals with Times Ind PIE-Greek font is not convenient, because (all described here: http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Adamic_language ):

text: ::::::::*Times Ind font uses native Greek numerals (horizontally long) made from ligatured tallies, that are Phoenician-derived, as Greek script itself too is derived from Phoenician.

text: ::::::::*Times Ind font uses only Greek uppercase - being most archaic Greek case - in place of Times German Latin lowercase, because some Times German Latin uppercased diacritical counterparts were missing, and due of the same reason Times Ind in place of Times German Latin uppercase has empty rectangles - both cases are swapped among themselves.

replies: text: :::::::::::As I mentioned to you before, the first Greek alphabet doesn't run linearly either: the lines go in boustrophedon from one end to another (the letters mirror when this happens, too!). The purely linear direction and the single orientation of the letters are an innovation not found in the earliest existing Vowel+Consonant script, which is the one you say you are using. As for the values of the laryngeals, remember that is merely a convenience of notation—the value of the phoneme *H₃ is just as uncertain as the value of, say, *bh (which is almost certainly not /bʰ/); the signs are only chosen for their mnemonic value (in the case of *bh, as a reference to its usual reflex in Sanskrit) and this becomes more and more visible as the progress of the science gets better at pinning down the values. Incidentally, how do you plan to separate *g and *gh from *ǵ and *ǵh in Greek letters? —Mucius Tever 00:43, 30 Iunii 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: ::::::::::::Separating of *g and *gh from *ǵ and *ǵh in Greek letters is done in Times Ind by using Indoeuropeanistic diacritics. 82.177.192.205 08:03, 30 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

The third is essentially an expansion of the information in the second (and that yot is accepted as a unicode codepoint is not a controversial fact), and the first one specifically says that yot was in origin a Latin letter used by Germans to transcribe one of the sounds of Greek. If the Unicode practices regarding how "script mixing" is viewed were different, it would probably never have been viewed (or encoded) as a Greek letter in the first place. Note that your first source's page on "script mixing" explicitly describes yot as a "Latin letter"; also, the Greek typographer Yannis Harambolous states that the correct rendering of yot "depends on the background language, i.e. not of the language in which it is used (ancient Greek) but of the main language of the document (English if it is an English translation or critical edition, French if it is a French one, and so on)"—he goes on to mention that this is one of the justifications for yot being encoded separately: "taking a plain Latin j would not allow French users to represent it by a y". —Mucius Tever 17:56, 28 Iunii 2008 (UTC)

===Alpha and Sho===
Full global Greek alphabet is as follows:
It begins with Alpha, and ends with Sho. That means that Omega in this case is not final letter, because after Omega is placed too Sampi and Sho. Due to this fact, in this case God is not only local Ionian Alpha and Omega, because He is in this case too Somebody more - global Pan-Greek Alpha and Sho. This fact should be acknowledged by all Christians that uses global Greek Alphabet, because in this case they can diminish God by excluding Him from full range of global Greek Alphabet. Ionians were justified by their unknowledge, and Jesus only adjusted Himself to their lower level of knowledge, calling Himself as local Ionian Beginning and End. Sho was placed behind Sampi and was only existing Greek letter not used by Greeks, but by Bactrians that adopted Greek alphabet. 91.94.167.29 18:14, 24 Ianuarii 2008 (UTC)
Try this:
letter Alpha can be thought as rotated letter Aleph
 ⇾ 
letter Sho can be thought as rotated letter Omega
 ⇾ 
So:
Aleph-Omega ≈ Alpha-Sho. 96.44.133.2 16:22, 12 Octobris 2010 (UTC)
