The OP just wanted to know if you spoke any other languages......sheesh slaphead


I am sorry if I appear to be an idiot. But I have this little problem, I do what I want. I think as I think. And if it bothers you that not every body lives in a simple world, read the news.


I never called you an idiot.....but I do think you are calling me one....but hey I don't care....I like my simple world and my simple life.....and FYI, I watch the news everyday:smile:


Well, I don't have the stomach for it. But I have been working to solve problems no one else in history has been able to solve. I have done remarkably well with it. I would rather not watch the news, but change it.




fascinating.. I am intrigued by problem solving.

If you don't mind me asking. How many of these historical problem have you solved, meaning that, your work has been accepted by the proper entities as the answer..the solution to that problem. I would think accolades would be in order by these entities and the public.. at the very least. Which is the next big one on the radar?

Cool, you like Confucius?

He was one of the leaders in understanding the relationship between language and psychology.

The Master replied, "��What is necessary is to rectify names. "��So! indeed!" � said Tsze-lu. "��You are wide of the mark! Why must there be such a rectification?"��
The Master said, "��How uncultivated you are, Yu! A superior man, in regard to what he does not know, shows a cautious reserve.
“If names be not correct, language is not in accordance with the truth of things. If language be not in accordance with the truth of things, affairs cannot be carried on to success.
“When affairs cannot be carried on to success, proprieties and music do not flourish. When proprieties and music do not flourish, punishments will not be properly awarded. When punishments are not properly awarded, the people do not know how to move hand or foot.
“Therefore, a superior man considers it necessary that the names he uses may be spoken appropriately, and also that what he speaks may be carried out appropriately. What the superior man requires is just that, in his words there may be nothing incorrect."�� Analects Confucius

Okay, you like simple;

There is a difference between parroting a language and speaking a language.

There is a difference between appearance and reality. Reality is known through standards, i.e. just like language is expressed only when one knows the standards and abides by them.

The most fundamental principle of language is its biological origin, its origin in physics, which determine the principles of language which are not taught today.

If you want to understand how important the use of language is by standards, try this.

The Difference between Man and Beast.

The question assumes that one has a definition of language.

If one knew what that was, one would be familiar with a Two-Element Metaphysics being explored a long time ago, not only by ancient Greeks, but it is also fundamental to the Judeo-Christian Scripture.

The Two-Element Metaphysics is based on the definition of a thing, and it is reflected in biology.

It also means that there are fundamentally two branches of language, logics and analogics. Common grammars are logics.

Now think about this.

The human mind is wholly responsible for human behavior.
The human mind functions only to the degree that principles of language are functionally resident in that mind.
Therefore the foundation of human behavior can be traced back to the principles of language. Human psychology is derived from the principles of logic and analogic functionally resident in a mind.

However, if the principles of language are not known, not recognized, etc, etc, one cannot claim to be fluent in any language.

one eventually concludes that mankind is proto-linguistic, therefore pre-civil, and that there is no one fluent in any language, because we are proto-linguistic.

Certain philosophers have made statements in regard to language and human behavior and they have never been understood. They could not be. Someday, maybe they will.

I have developed an analogic that some have searched for, for a very long time, basic analog mathematics. What it demonstrates is that all of mathematics is derivable from simple Euclidean Geometry, effectively leaving the non-Euclidean Genius's with no math for their fantasies.




Talking of great minds.
If memory serves me right, I think it was Plato who once said,
'wise men speak because they have something to say, fools speak because they have to say something'.

I have posted several translations of the works of Plato in audio book form on the Internet Archive.

If you can find that quote, I would be really surprised.

However, thank you for exampling your own quote.

there you go Mr philosopher
