Definitions
Of or pertaining to the origin of speech.
- The two layers of speech are also called — if one looks at speech from a glottogenetic point of view — 'impositions'.
- Even though evolutionary continuity implies the existence of an interface between the archaeolinguistic and glottogenetic stages, this interface has to be very differently structured from the ones between the other stages.
- Modern interpreters have often branded the very notion of impositio as a sign of intellectualism (as if names could be invented 'on paper'!) or glottogenetic naïveté.
