THE UNITY OF THE ROOTS OF THE LANGUAGES OF THE INDO-EUROPEAN FAMILY
In the article, based on the historical data described in the Bible about the spread of the language from Babylon, the author shows that so many words of ancient and modern languages have similarities in structure and meaning. As such words are many according to the law of probability; there is no possibility of their appearance in different languages. They are borrowed or hereditary from a single proto-language. It is also shown that words change their form on the basis of phonetic laws and to clarify the meaning of words of unknown etymology, along with the knowledge of ancient languages, one must take into account the patterns of word-form change.
