![]() ![]() Relating Ladybirds to the Virgin Mary is not unusual in 1991 Dr. ![]() The red base colour of the elytra is said to represent her cloak and the 7 black spots to represent the ‘Virgins’ 7 joys and 7 sorrows. 7 Spot Ladybird (Coccinella 7-punctata) concentration swarming on brick Our Lady’s Bird: the Lady in this case being ‘The Virgin Mary’ from Christian Mythology. The name Ladybird arises from the vernacular name for the common 7-Spot Ladybird ( Coccinella 7-punctata) in Europe. Many exude unpleasant oils from joints in their legs as a defense mechanism. The legs are short and retractable under the body. The elytra completely cover the abdomen, meet all the way down the middle of the insect’s back and are never longitudinally ridged. The antennae are usually 11 segmented, short and clubbed. Ladybugs are described as small to medium sized beetles, 0.3 mm to 10 mm long with a head that is retractable into the pronotum (the dorsal surface of the first thoracic segment). There are more than 5,200 species world wide and of these 42 regularly occur in Britain. They are generally brightly colored and are symbols of good in many myths. In the light of new discoveries, the research also evaluates all important theories and assumptions that have been built on language and invalidate them.Lady Bugs (Family Coccinellidae a.k.a Lady Birds or Lady Beetles) are among the most familiar and best loved of the commonly identified insects. In addition to ‘evolution of language’, the research also treats in depth the ‘evolution of human capacities for language’. The purpose of this special comparative study is to demonstrate that the very same proots are found in Sino-Tibetan, that this family is originally inflectional, and that its monosyllabic words are originally complex words. The research also compares, though briefly, Hamito-Semitic with the oldest known documents of the Sino-Tibetan family. The study demonstrates incredible similarities in sound correspondences, in proots, in traditional roots and their derivatives, and in their grammatical systems. To prove this fact scientifically, the research compares Hamito-Semitic and Indo-European language families. ![]() The research assumes that proots discovered in Hamito-Semitic family are found in all other families of languages and there is no language family which has completely lost any of such proots. All such elements are originally separate words, each having a well-defined meaning or grammatical function. The linguistic elements of any traditional root can be easily divided into ‘a primeval root, called proot’ compounded with another proot or old grammatical affixes. It demonstrates in a way as clear and evident as sunshine that Hamito-Semitic root is a complex word consisting of a number of elements agglutinated together and expressing a concrete or special meaning. The book includes three long-desired discoveries: 1. Its findings are revolutionary in linguistics they radically change our view of language and its historical evolution in the course of millennia, unveil the obvious relationships among world’s languages, and raze to ground the walls of might that the vicissitudes of time have built to keep language apart. The present book is wholly based on new linguistic discoveries and without them it will never come into existence. The final chapter concludes with an overview of definiteness markers, personal pronouns, demonstratives and other pronominal forms. Chapter 7 is an elaborate discussion and classification of the large set of verbal prefixes in Takivatan. Chapter 6 concisely describes the grammatical and derivational uses of focus suffixes. Chapter 4 is a concise treatment of compounding, an uncommon and unproblematic process in Takivatan. After an introductory chapter and an overview of Takivatan phonology, Chapter 3 discusses how words and affixes can be defined in Takivatan and gives a general overview of word building processes. It is intended as a preliminary to a full descriptive grammar. Based on more than one year of field work data, this dissertation explores aspects of the grammar of Takivatan as spoken by the people of the villages Ma-yuan and Qi-mei in Hualien County. Takivatan Bunun is the third-largest of its five extant dialects and is spoken by a number of small settlements two counties in the central mountains and at the east coast of the island. Its most marked characteristics are its complex verbal morphology and its unusual argument alignment system. ![]() The Bunun language is spoken by one of the thirteen officially recognized Austronesian minority groups on the island of Taiwan. ![]()
