Sun Language Theory The Sun Language Theory (Turkish: Güneş Dil - TopicsExpress



          

Sun Language Theory The Sun Language Theory (Turkish: Güneş Dil Teorisi) was a Turkish Nationalist pseudoscientific linguistic hypothesis developed in Turkey in the 1930s that proposed that all human languages are descendants of one proto-Turkic primal language. The theory proposed that because this primal language had close phonemic resemblances to Turkish, all other languages can essentially be traced back to Turkic roots. According to the theory, the Central Asian worshippers, who wanted to salute the omnipotence of the sun and its life-giving qualities, had done so by transforming their meaningless blabbering into a coherent set of ritual utterings, and language was born, hence the name.
