OP I thought about that at length (and maybe it's my skeptic nature) but it doesn't make a lot of sense to me that most of the words of a modern language were modernized (through a number of languages) simply via evolution without anyone (singular or plural) specific to direct it. I take modern Hebrew as my fundamental reasoning, wherein most of the words formation was chairmaned. But nevertheless, if there is no other explanation I take your words for it. I was just expecting more convincing arguments.
zmjezhd, I don't know the pronunciation distinction then. I'm not particularly erudite in Hebrew for a sabra (native-born Israeli). As you might tell, all my focus went towards English.
PS. it sounds the book was a good deal, I'll try to look it up in a second hand store.
