Man gave names to all the animals
OP - October 18, 2009, 01:59 PM

One of my fav songs from the great Bob Dylan. Actually I would like to know, who gave names to all the animals? Really... How all languages came up with the animal names? Very interesting indeed.

I guess one day an ancient blacksmith was working on something and the Anvil fell on his toe so he screamed: " OHHHH GODDDD!!!" then it hit him. He must have called to his creator subconsciously !!

No idea. In Russian God is called "бог" or "Bog". In Turkish "bok" means shit. Must be difficult for Turks living in Russia, or believing Russians in Turkey.

"He saw the world and the stars in sky
Some children born and some men die
Observed a world that was so odd
Ohhhhhh, I think there must be a God"

I just made that up

if the car was called "vroom vroom" or "beeb beeb" then it is understandable. Or if the horse was called "hiiiiii eeeeeeeeee" then that is understandable too. But who came up with words: horse, car, train, shoe.... etc etc?

I guess some of these words would have come from older languages such as Latin
