CLAIMS & DISPUTES
SCHOLARLY DISPUTES / 3
Are bridegroom and human directly descended from one another?
No. Germanic *gumōn- and Latin homō reflect different earthling formations that meet only at *dhghem-.
Does human descend directly from Latin humus, soil?
No. Latin homō and humus are sibling reflexes analyzed under the earth root; hūmānus belongs to the homō family.
Does human descend from humus?
No. Latin humus and homō are separate formations under *dhghem-; English human descends through hūmānus and homō.
CONTRARIAN TRUTHS / 2
Human reaches earth as a reconstructed earthling, not a direct dirt word.
Latin hūmānus belongs with homō; comparative analysis derives homō from *(dh)ghom-on-, an earthling formation on *dhghem-, earth.
Human does not descend from humus.
Latin humus and homō are sibling formations under *dhghem-; the English words meet only at reconstructed depth.
