THE ORIGIN OF
GREEK *
(Contact)
INTRODUCTION
In the section on Scottish Ogam,
Edo Nyland explained how various inscriptions were agglutinated from the
first syllables of Basque words. It was clear that this was done by people
very knowledgeable of the Basque language. Almost exactly the same process
can be detected in most Greek words. It appears that the main instruction
given to the linguists, who made up the Greek vocabulary, was that the
substratum Basque word should not be recognizable in the newly created words.
These Greek words were to be composed of a severely abbreviated description
or definition in the Basque language. Almost every consonant in the Greek
words represents one complete word in the Basque dictionary. However,
different from the Romance languages, the first syllable of Greek words is
taken from both halves of the Basque vocabulary.

in italics. The >f=
