imitation Hebrew within the confines of
the English language:

how?
             apostrophes...

e.g. guns 'n' roses...
        but the same could be likewise
for another three lettered word...

    and 'n'...
             one and AND... you can clip those "wings"
from either of the words...

   but... obviously... it's not as popular...
to have to peer into a little bit of the niqqud...

let's face it... when properly digitalized
the apostrophe is almost indistinguishable
from the yodh...
                                   '               י

just write in Sans-Serif...
  or... hell... write in monospaced: י
    oh look... slight curvature of the Greek gamma...
being ****** by a chiral mirror:
   Γ...
  
      or how does this "clock" / "compass" work?
it's not Copernican...
the "lambda" off V: via: Λ...
   γλωμ (gloom)
                
             La La... La La...

in how many Greek letters is the iota the protagonist
of the key, keyhole and door?

i find three... ΞΘΦ...
no wait... i find four!
                            ΞΘΦ & Ψ

ΞΘΦΨ: that's the Greek equivalent take
on the Hebrew tetragrammaton...
will need to change that around a little...
to keep in line with the Hebrew ה... heh...

i.e.       ΨΘΦΞ...

the symbolism of this implies: either opening
the same door twice... or... opening two doors...
insert a key in: vertically: |...
turn it... to a horizontal position: ー

four ******* iotas by the end of it...
seriously...
if the Greeks wanted to have a new testament
conspiracy "theory" about an Egyptian
false prophet with the Hebrews
to undermine Rome...
sure... 2000 years "late"...

            but my antithesis is here...
and i'm not as sceptical as Emperor Nero
that the Hebrews relied on a "theory of fire"...
it's purely phonetic: perspective has taught me:

the disappearance of ancient Persian cuneiform...
of Egyptian hieroglyphics...
Chinese ideograms are no more ******* practical...
Japanese katakana is...
Korean Hangul is... there's no reason as to why
Chinese ideograms survived while
the other two writing formats didn't...

the god-eater that's the Hebrew deity became
******* with the people who used these phonetic encoding
methods... the Chinese never enslaved
the Hebrews...
but even the Hebrew deity must have been
a bit ******* with his people
when it came to undermining Latin...
it's... still here... and it's already entombed in
electric technology...

you can't undermine the Latin script...
not now...
you can't get rid of it...
           it would be a bit like coding using
either Hebrew or Arabic when doing
modern mathematics using the Latin
method of VI + IV = X!

isn't that amazing?! architecture constructed
from... no real demand for numbers...
for a mathematical language...
i've already mentioned it:
not even because of hindsight...
we don't owe the Arabs or the Hindus for
the invention of numbers...
we already had them:
simple example that the ancient people
used letters as numbers...

what's 1? I... iota...
what's 0? O... omicron...
what's 6? b: beta...
what's 3? epsilon E...
         what's 9? P... rho...
what's 4? loosely G or P again...
what's 5? S... sigma...
           what's 7? gamma or el L...
2? that's zeta: Z...
8? B... beta... hey presto!
                 letters morphed into numbers...
it was already here: within us!
maybe Arabic numerals helped...
or Hindu numerals...
              who cares is chess was invented in India:
football was invented in England...
as was rugby...
chess isn't a replacement for religious fervour...
it's not an EVENT sport...

i'm not going to be thankful for the Arabs
"inventing" numbers for us "ignorant" Europeans
since i see... letters that morphed into numbers...
precisely because the ancient Romans
used letters as being synonymous with numbers...
they could interchange a phonetic measure
to a spatial or temporal measure...

no ******* this time round...
i'm not having this deity-eater that i much admire:
regardless shove kippah ******* pancakes
under my bed pillow in some crucifix excuse
of "suffering"... nein!

tried with the Germans... fail...
well... the resurrection of Israel... so not much of a failure...
but i'm not going to get clobbered
in the head... get Islam shoved down my throat
because: Gaza is still not part of Israel...

and no! i'm not going to be thankful
for the Indians or the Arabs for the existence of
numbers...
we already had the letters that "sort of" represented
the numbers... we already knew that
letters could be used as both letters and as numbers:

ergo: VI + IV = X!
