FESTSCHRIFT IN HONOUR OF NOAM AVRAM CHOMSKY: A COMPARATIVE COMPUTATIONAL GRAMMAR OF SANSKRIT-ARABIC-GREEK-HEBREW

In the canonical Arabic text by Baydawi which is a scriptural interpretation of the Quran, it is said that : ``The Kufans said that before affixing, the enunciative was in the nominative just as enunciatives should be, and remained so afterwards, necessitating the nominative by presumption of continuity so that it is not the particle that gives it that case. It was replied that the necessitation of its being in the nominative because it is an enunciative is conditional upon its being unaugmented, since the [nominative case] does not accompany it in the enunciative of kana, but rather disappears when it is affixed; so the particle has to be given regency’’.

In classical greek, the vowel epsilon is added as an `augment’

Augmentation can be used in place of reduplication of consonant

PIE consanguinity can be sensed here

Here are some examples of the `an before vowel’. The consonant n has been added or omitted in the course of time.

In Sanskrit, the aorist system consists of augemntation and reduplication scenarios
