Origin of the letters: the letters B and P

Have you ever wondered where the lyrics are? B He came from? Most scholars will tell you that it comes from the Semitic letter known as Bet. They will also tell you that the name of the Semitic letter is derived from the Semitic word. bayt, which means “house” and that the shape of the original letter was inspired by an Egyptian hieroglyph for a house. They will then tell you that the chart was adopted by the ancient Greeks, who called it beta, and that the Greeks, after changing the style of the letter to their liking, passed the letter on to the Romans, who passed it on to the English, and that sometime along the way the name of the letter was conveniently abbreviated to simply Bee.

I suspect that most would accept the traditional explanation as quite reasonable and feel that there is no good reason to question it. But I would totally disagree. That’s because I’ve been doing a lot of research related to the Latin, Greek, and Semitic alphabets over the years, and what I’ve discovered is that the history of the letter B actually, it appears to be far more complicated, fascinating, and compelling than scholars have long claimed.

What you are about to learn is something that is likely to upset a lot of pens in academia. No doubt there will be some who will respond to what I have to say with a knee-jerk reaction. But those with quiet supplies, I hope, will eventually come to see the truth in what I am about to share with you. And, by discovering the truth, we will all be better.

So, let’s go start…

The greek name Beta did not derive from the Semitic word bayt; rather it seems that it was the other way around. The Greek name of the letter is actually a different pronunciation of another Greek word, asked. The greek word asked, or originally peda, means “child”. It is related to other words for “boy”, “boy” or “girl” (eg, Telugu bidda, Hindi beti / beta, Hebrew bet / ben, Irish paiste, Scottish Gaelic Country of, Arabica fataa and Aromanian ugly).

While the Aramaic word bayt clearly means “house”, it does not always necessarily refer to the physical structure. The word was also used as a reference to the descendants of a common patriarch, just as “the house of David” in English is understood to refer to the descendants of David. Clearly, the word bayt it eventually came to be a reference to physical structure, but that seems to have been because, over time, the word began to be understood as a reference to one’s family heritage rather than the family’s patriarch.

Now, as inspiring as that statement may be, the story of the letter B it doesn’t end there. It turns out that its story is closely related to the story of another letter: the letter P.

The Semitic name of the letter P it is Physical education, which means “mouth”. Those who study Egyptian mythology might be interested to know that the Semitic word Physical education is related to an ancient mummification ritual known as “the opening of the mouth”, and which was associated with a god known as Ptah, whose name is essentially the same as the Hebrew word for “open”, patakh (compare Arabic Fatah). Note that if you say the name Ptah rather slowly, you may realize that you are essentially saying “beta”. In other words, not just the letters P Y B They look and sound like each other, they also share a connection to ancient Egypt.

But what is happening here? The Greek name of the letter B Is it really the name of an Egyptian god whose name somehow came to mean “offspring”?

Oddly enough, this story actually gets even weirder. You see, from 4000 BC. C. more or less, the residents of England have been doing something called cutting. Today, I suspect, very few people have a clue what retouching is. Even fewer have the slightest idea what retouching has to do with lyrics. B gold P. But, fortunately for you, I’m here to explain everything to you.

It is true that cutting it sounds like something you probably don’t want to get caught doing in public. But I can assure you that it does not mean anything unseemly. Actually, copposing it simply refers to a method of harvesting wood from a tree so as not to kill it.

After the trunk of a tree reaches a certain diameter, the trunk of the tree is cut and the wood of the tree is harvested for use. If the remaining stump or feces are properly cut thereafter, the tree continues to live and eventually new stems or shoots sprout from the original tree stump or stumps. It is done correctly, regrowing the wood to be harvested from the same tree over and over again, sometimes for hundreds of years.

The time between harvests varies largely depending on the species of the tree. Oak, for example, can take half a century to grow before it can be harvested for use. In contrast, birch trees can be harvested every 3 to 4 years.

So what does retouching have to do with lyrics? B or the letter P? In fact, quite a bit.

In the Germanic lands of ancient Europe, the letters carved by scribes were known as runes. And one of the runes, which looked and looked a lot like our handwriting. B, was known as Berkanan, the Germanic word for “birch”. Most scholars believe that the Berkanan rune was inspired by the Greek or Roman letter B. But it turns out that that conclusion or assumption may be somewhat wrong.

The names Berkanan Y birch (analogous to gothic bairka) are related to an English word that we are all quite familiar with: birth. The word birth generally believed to be derived from Old Norse birðe. But if one looks very carefully, one will also recognize that the word birth is, in fact, related to Slovenian porod (where he D originally pronounced as th) and Latin license (where he t was also originally pronounced as th).

In Athens, Greece there is a famous temple dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena that stands on top of the hill known as Acropolis. The temple is called Parthenon. The name of the temple is believed to derive from an epithet given to the goddess Athena: parthena, which in modern Greek means “virgin”. But the word parthena actually seems to have originally derived from Birth Was born, where Birth is the same as latin license, which means “birth” and Was born it essentially means “not out of.” While some might interpret “birth, not out of” to mean “virgin”, I suspect that the original meaning was probably “unborn” and that it referred to the perpetual existence of a force of nature or other phenomena.

At this point, I should take a moment to mention the Irish word for “birch.” The Irish word for “birch” is beithe. And again, if one says “beithe” correct, one must recognize that beithe is essentially the same as beta, the Greek name of the letter B. It should also be noted that three years, the amount of time it takes for re-bronzed birch trees to be ready to be harvested again, is roughly the same time it takes for a woman to have a second child.

If you open your eyes long enough, hopefully you can also recognize that the capital letter B appears to be a pictograph of the torso of a pregnant woman. Could it be pure coincidence? Maybe; but I doubt it very much.

So what does birth and offspring have to do with the ancient Egyptian “opening of the mouth” ceremony related to the god known as Ptah? The answer is that the Ptah ceremony was specifically intended to free the person’s spirit from their corpse so that it could enter the afterlife.

Do you understand the image now? If not, let me explain. For those who lived in ancient times, birth and death were seen as similar events. In one case, one was entering this world; in the other case, one entered the next. Existence, in their eyes, was a continuous cycle of births and rebirths, something that cutting down birch trees also represented for them.

Now today’s scholars will tell you that the letter B it has no symbolic meaning, that the letter simply represents a particular sound. But hopefully by now it is obvious that the ancient peoples of Europe, the Middle East, and Egypt thought differently. They universally i saw the letter B as representing the meaning of “birth” and “offspring”, whether the offspring is that of a human or that of a plant.

[Hebrew scholars have also long noted that the Torah begins with a beth. They see the three-sided beth as symbolizing the fact that the rest of the Torah represents an emanation from God. Clearly, “opening the mouth” is necessary before one can speak, so I cannot help but perceive a deep connection exists between the idea of speech and the letter B. So for me, the Torah scholars clearly appear to have been on to something.]

Letters B Y P however, in fact, it had other meanings besides “descent” and “openness.” For example, they also had the meanings “extension”, “stem”, “upper surface” and “curved surface”. However, keep in mind that I did not deduce any of the meanings they possessed from the remarkable history of the letters that I have just hinted at. Rather, I originally deduced their meanings by carefully studying the English and foreign words that incorporate the letters B Y P. I only began to be able to better understand the origin of letters by first understanding their symbolic meanings.

But while what I just presented about the letters P Y B may seem quite remarkable, the most remarkable thing I have discovered is that despite what scholars may tell you, all of the other letters of the alphabet also reflect different meanings, as do the letters P Y B. And those meanings, if you look hard enough, are reflected in practically every word you say.

In future articles I hope to share some of their stories with you as well.
