Yes, it is you can lie about it all you like but its right there for everyone to see - the complete failure of your idea

You lost it and no matter how much you lie about it your idea remain debunked. If you had won you'd be showing the test to everyone that you were right instead you fled from it and never mention it.

Oh you mean they are abstractions - you assigned the meaning of upwards to that one word. If you want to apply other meanings that means you are wrong about 100% fixed meaning and that they had abstractions.
You idea remains fully debunked

Sorry we don't believe you as you've never established that the didn't AE think they were Gods. Your amateur opinion on this is not fact, as a matter of fact it is goofy.

Because I did - when we did this originally you ran away, now you are saying you have to 'adjust' the meaning of other words - we both know you aren't going to do that as it will simply prove you made all this nonsense up and those new meanings won't fit 100% when applied to the rest of the PT.

Yes we do wonder why you think people would believe you when you clearly made up all this BS! LOL

I have and your idea remains completely debunked and shown to be nothing more than the unscientific opinion of a person who cannot read a language he is trying to change the meaning of.
Goofy language not ancient language.
