Re: On the 2/3 flood



SAE = Standard Average European, the metaphysico-grammatical commonality of 
Romance, Slavic and Germanic languages which marked the built in thought 
pattern of westerners, according to Whorf.  It is not clear just what all is 
included but certain the noun-adjective-verb distinction grammatically that 
pointed (or from) the thing-property-action metaphysics (independent things 
have dependent properties and participate in more dependednt actions -- all 
of which are eventually things again).  Probably also obligatory tense and 
time as external and linear (or partially ordered), gender and sex 
differentiation even in inanimates, and whatever else differeed markedly from 
Hopi (verbs throughout, circular time, process metaphysics, ...)
