The paper intends to find the more probable age of proto-human, which in turn could help in finding the timeline of proto-language. In the hominid line of evolution, the rise of modern humans plays a significant role and its role is also owing to the fact of their uniqueness due to language. Different disciplines are put together to solve the mystery of language of human. In an attempt to understand how old, language could be, the paper makes an attempt to find it by first locating the timeline of the proto-human, using the Minimalist program of Chomsky. The search goes with Cartesian discontinuity notion and uses paleoanthropology and genetics to find the age of proto-human.

Martí, el más universal de los cubanos, fue un autor preocupado y con fe en la
utilidad de la virtud. En este aspecto merece especial atención su artículo
Maestros Ambulantes publicado en Nueva York, mayo de 1884 [1]. En el
presente trabajo se presenta una propuesta para facilitar el análisis de su obra
haciendo uso de los mapas cognitivos neutrosóficos (MCN) [2].

The paper intends to zoom in and find a uniqueness in human language by narrowing down the range of cognitive domains to human computational mind having a property of recursion which is exclusively unique to human and not in any other species in animalia kingdom.This notion of recursion is the centrality of the paper. There has been an opposition to the notion of recursion being only unique to human and the paper makes an attempt to reply to such arguments using experimental findings from modern neuroscience. The existing controversies over the proposed minimalist language and its future remains open to the future of modern neuroscience and modern physics.

A very simple change in wording can show why matter literally is energy. An additional explanation goes over why special relativity is not a revolutionary theory at all it is simply a play on words by a famous mathematician.

It is hypothesized that mathematics is not a language but a series of symbols used to make measurements which either combine or subtract them. It does not possess the ability to communicate any idea effectively because there are no concrete objects in mathematics. In real languages in which a person can communicate ideas to one another, both abstractions and concrete ideas are needed for meaning. The use of abstractions only as in the case of mathematics means that communication is avoided all together. This is why quantum mechanics, general relativity, string theory and other purely mathematical theories are not scientific theories but unfalsifiable conjecture without meaning. This is why they are still taught in schools and why they will never be falsified because they are unfalsifiable as they contain no meaning.

It will be shown that big bang dogma prevents new scientific discovery. It is well established that stars cool and die to become what are called planets/exo-planets but the dogma of the entire universe being a specific age prevents reason and scientific discovery. It can be shown that Big Bang is simply a failure to effectively communicate the concept of “age”.

Das Florentin’sche Homonym dreht Homonyme von den Füßen auf den Kopf!
Es kehrt Grammatik- und Sprachregeln um, trotzt dabei der Grammatik und liebt Fehler, indem es die Sprache stört, Mehrdeutigkeiten zwischen Wörtern und Bedeutungen (die homonymische Kollision) nutzt, Folgesätze mit zwei oder mehr homonymen Formen, die entweder als separater homonymer Ausdruck oder als eine Reihe von Homonymen gebildet werden, aufstellt,
und selbstverständlich den immerwährenden Humor, der wie das Salz in der Suppe wirkt, nicht vergisst!

A Florentin’s Homonym uses homonyms
in an upside-down way!... entangling grammar
and language rules, defying orthography…
loving mistakes…
- employing tongue hindering;
- ambiguities of words and senses (homonymic
clash);
- or sentences with two or more homonymic
forms put together - either as separate homonymic phrase, or as a
chain of homonyms;
- and, of course, the eternal humor which helps
as does the salt in the food!

The Florentin's Cliché should be constructed as follows:
- Change the figurative language [figure of speech] of a cliché to a literal language;
- Or distort the clichés, make them abnormal, deviate their common sense by simple substitutions of words;
- Or eliminate some words from a cliché, or switch the verbs between assertion and negation, in order to give the cliché a surprising new significance:
- Or consider a chain of (more or less) contradictory clichés and put together with a unitary semantics;
- Or juxtapose a cliché with a … (partial or total) contradictory syntagma!
And as a whole the Florentin’s Cliché should be bended with humor.

This volume includes author’s paradoxist experiments in linguistics from a literary point of view.
One devises various methods that deviate and alter the classical form of some linguistic expressions.
Eleven linguistic categories are presented (Murphy’s laws, the clichés, homonyms, tautologies, proverbs, metagrams, translations, definitions, figures of paradoxism, monorhymes, and abbreviations), which afterwards are respectively turned into their corresponding Florentin’s laws, clichés, homonyms, etc. and exemplified.

The existence of two or more defined concepts implies the need for definition intertwinement analysis, inasmuch as two phenomena gives room to an analysis on whether there is a third – or more – because of the relation between the two. We start the field with a conditional.

Russian letters have ancient names which add up to a meaningful text
following the alphabet acrophony. The second half of this text, known as
Message to Slavs, calls for a translation into modern language, and its
interpretation is, generally speaking, ambiguous. The recently accepted
translation sounds pompous and perhaps somewhat sanctimonious. Below I
give an alternative interpretation of the message's second part, that is formed
of sensual images, and someone may see it as scabrous. However that may be, I
proceed from the assumption that our ancestors were more honest in their
emotions than today's coprolalics.

The proclivities of particularity and generality describe a polarity, held together by a
naked emotionality that signifies a felt middle-term. This polarity indicates a type of circular
reasoning, and can endlessly oscillate due to an equivocation that confuses particularity with
generality that may block emotional energies and prevent resolution. Deduction and induction
represent the same polarity, as does the frequentist and Bayesian interpretations of statistics.
Reintroducing emotion back into logic returns an intuitionist logic and grammar, and this permits
the resolution of felt tension. This intuitionism is tied to a time-sense that oscillates between
foresight (to particularity) and hindsight (to generality). Emotionality is found relating to
causation, agreeing with A.N. Whitehead. It is hypothesized that the intuitionist logic provides a
universal grammar, or a vitalistic organizing principle, that has impacted on biological evolution.
This agrees with panpsychism and panentheism.

This is a collection of linguistic-mathematical approaches to Romanian rebus, poetical
and juridical texts, and proposes fancies, recreational math problems, and paradoxes. We
study the frequencies of letters, syllables, vowels in various poetry, grill definitions in
rebus, and rebus rules. We also compare the scientific language, lyrical language, and
puzzles' language, and compute the Shannon entropy and Onicescu informational energy.
