Polat when did the *A- of Adunamentum in Latin replace the *U of
Udanma-men-itum. And when did the *-u- of Adunamentum repalce the *-
a- of Udanma-men-itum. And finally when did ht *-ma- of Utanma get
deleted altogether. Linguists tend to show the existence of
Linguistic "Laws" which show how these things occur. Thus the *p- of
Indo-European tended to get replaced by an *f- in Germanic languages
(thus Latin "pisces" and "pater" became "fish" and "father"). What
regular linguistic laws can you show us how your anagramatisation
took place.

Polat, when did these changes occur? Who was it who made these
changes and why? What evidence do you have (either onomastic or
epigrammatic) that demonstrates these kinds of changes?

Polat, scientific theory works because one can demonstrate the
contexts in which a theory can be disproved, and when we find that
the test that could disprove the theory come up with a "nul" result,
the we say the theory can be proved. I have given you a number of
questions which you continue to ignore that could establish for me
the truth or falsity of your theory, but you never answer these
questions. Why do you avoid them?

Oh yes there are. There are many correspondences between any two
languages that exist purely by chance. For example your case of "I
am the [concept of] being ashamed", has only very little to do
with "expiation, reconciliation with God and man" which my dictonary
tells me is the meaning of "atonement".
Polat try answering the questions I have proposed in this and other
emails, and I may find your theory of Turkish anagramatisation a
lttle more convincing. Until you do, I prefer to stay with the
theories which have withstood the tests of time.
Warm regards
