Mr. drj33
I am not willing to discuss my theory again, but out of curiosity I have a question.
Please explain me that how we have reached to the conclusion that at the time of formation of the words, the speech community had agreed on sound /bɒg/, to represent “a body of water”, but not to represent “clarity of acceptability of resistance / bond” (this explanation supports all dictionary meanings of BOG).
As you said that “the WHOLE WORD is ARBITRARILY associated with a meaning”, and “arbitrary does not mean random. It means non-deterministic”, what will happen if a word is made of single sound. Will it carry a meaning or not?
In place of arguing “but there is no inherent reason .....”, I will prefer to say that “we do not know the inherent reason .......”. In place of ‘non-deterministic’, why we are not using the word ‘still not determined’. In my view, the STOPPING of possibilities is a largest obstruction in development.
Mr. Zaba
You said that “If it is not falsifiable, it IS not a scientific theory”. With your permission, I want to make a correction. In my view “If it is not falsifiable, it MAY not a scientific theory”. We cannot deny the possibility.
The mistakes of the hypothesis can be checked by applying the semantic values to different words of different languages. If nothing is explained, the hypothesis is false. Hence the hypothesis is not fully un-falsifiable. If this argument is not satisfactory, please suggest me a way to check the hypothesis.
