consonant/aspirant 1/24/2013 note


Contrarily to Decartes' insistence that abstract concepts originate with the soul, I believe their roots can be seen to originate with the context of the environment, its forces create a necessary awakening of the senses, yes, but these must respond in very similar fashion such that we develop the basic concepts in similar fashion for example that we form our first morpheme for mother in the pattern consonant-aspirant-consonant (mahm), or the reverse, aspirant-consonant-aspirant (umah)
