    About this ebook

    Are words magical? Which word is the secret dark matter comprising the past, present and future?
    I have written the essays for different reasons, One of them is that by researching languages you arrive at the ultimate truth about history and nature. And the other is my discovery that travelling towards the original word, aboriginal word, in fact, means travelling into the future.
    I am inviting you to travel with me on the wings of letters and words of different languages into the past to see the future.

      Past Will Be Future - Valentin Cundric

      PREFACE

      My husband Valentin Cundric has written 37 short short essays on mysteries of letters and words. With the help of modern world languages as well as Latin, Greek, Hindu, Sanskrit, Old English etc. he traces a word as far back as he can, discovering on its way different meanings, as well as secret powers.

      Although I don’t understand everything, due to the lack of my knowledge of religions, history, mythologies, I find the essays a magnificent work, worth reading especially by scientists and linguists. That is the reason for my decision to translate the essays which are not strictly bound to the Slovenian language (and which I understood) into the English language. It was a hard work and I know that I have probably made mistakes, however, my intention is to show to the scientific world another theory, another approach to the explanation of the languages and their meanings.

      Magdalena Cundric

      AUTHOR'S WORD

      There was more than one reason for me to have decided to write this short short essays. I have written thirty-seven essays and had six of them, which I think to be more ‘international’, translated by my wife Magdalena Cundric.

      One of the reason to write the essays is that I often don’t agree with the official explanations of some words given in Etymological dictionary of Slovene Language, (and also other world languages), so I am offering my own explanation.

      I must add that I don’t disagree only with dictionaries but with the official explanation of some quotes in the Bible as well. I’m again offering my own.

      The second reason to write the essays is my wish to share my predictions of the future happenings in the world. Predictions made on the basis of etymological research of some words.

      The third, maybe the most important reason for my decision to write the essays is the theft of the intellectual property. For example, as is known, at least I hope so, the Roman numerals are not Roman but Etruscan and Arabian are not Arabian but Indian.

      Another example is the question who in fact wrote Glagolitic and Cyrillic.

      I try to clarify many misunderstandings and misinterpretations as best as I can.

      PAST WILL BE FUTURE

      The recent discovery of the new ‘human’ species coincides with the release of the book of essays by Valentin Cundric – PAST WILL BE THE FUTURE. As the archeologists are digging the earth and in it, so is Cundric, exploring the language. Each tiny ‘bone’, i.e. a letter is important. Etymology is the one carrying in its core the keys of meanings that in millennia of history of languages developed into contemporary languages of communication and provable material respectively. Material, revealing how languages were being created, formed, changed and where they gravitated to, if I use Cundric’s own words.

      Cundric is offering into consideration and understanding origins of words and meanings as a possible elementary basis for a new evaluation. Archetypes are of greatest importance, the pre-words or aboriginal words respectively, the fossils of a time.

      I can hardly imagine the power of joy in the world that would erupt at the sound of the first word, the first exclamation, the first sentence of the First Man. The magic of etymology is therefore, drinking from the spring of the Word.

      Cundric’s language researches don’t go side by side with language researches of today, they are at least a step ahead, whether the scientists and linguists like it or not.

      Word as criterion of thoughts has double meaning: it depends on whether it is spoken by God or by man. It is true that the language of man was created in God’s image and likeness, however, the magnificence of the divine is often disfigured, blurred and far from any connection to God’s message when infiltrated into human life and language. I find this more a natural disaster than a natural phenomenon.

      God’s words are supposed not to contain spacers (i.e.: you don’t have to read between the lines; no secret meanings). God's words are put down in the Bible and his statements, although divine, can
