television 2.9 – Slow-scan although Nipkow Disk is also a great choice, and Slow-scan can go to videotelephony as well (I have fond memories of poetry readings in the mid-90s with the Electronic Café in Santa Monica from the basement of a cybercafe in Paris using a PicturePhone mod I and flashing puppets that were stored in the basement…)
videotelephony 3.0 – PicturePhone. While I’m at it, I also remember a really funny 1996 experience with a 5 ISDN lines PictureTel (3 were used for video, and 2 for audio): we were waiting for a call and the lines started blinking. It took about a minute for all five to light up and show the picture of a corporate guy who looks at us, a bit puzzled, and goes: “Sorry, wrong number.” before he hanged up.
I don’t think that’s quite a fit .. 2.4 is “writing”, so going with
Some idea of timeline:
2.1

2.2

2.3

2.4
writing
Cuneiform

Next up, alphabet is also looking clearly Greek, at 800 BC
By at least the 8th century BCE the Greeks borrowed the Phoenician alphabet and adapted it to their own language, creating in the process the first “true” alphabet, in which vowels were accorded equal status with consonants. According to Greek legends transmitted by Herodotus, the alphabet was brought from Phoenicia to Greece by Cadmos. The letters of the Greek alphabet are the same as those of the Phoenician alphabet, and both alphabets are arranged in the same order.
놀랍게도 forum(포럼), forest(숲), foreign(외국의), forfeit(포기/몰수), hors d’oeuvre(안주), thyroid(갑상선) 모두 같은 어원에서 유래했습니다: ‘바깥, 야외’를 의미하는 for.
고대 그리스에서 포럼은 야외에 있었습니다
숲은 당연히 바깥에 있습니다
외국인이라는 말은 국경 바깥에서 온 사람을 의미합니다
forfeit은 잘못된 행동으로 인해 무언가를 잃는 것을 의미하지만, 원래 forfeit은 잘못된 행동 자체를 뜻했습니다: 허용되는 행동의 범위를 벗어난 것
hors d’oeuvre는 정규 식사 시간 외에 제공되는 작은 간식입니다
이 모든 단어는 ‘문’을 의미하는 인도유럽어족의 뿌리 dhwer에서 유래했습니다 (문 → 야외). 갑상선(thyroid)이 그렇게 이름 붙여진 이유는 그것이 문 모양과 약간 닮았기 때문이며, -oid 접미사는 항상 ‘~ 모양의’를 의미합니다. humanoid(인간 모양), android(인간 모양), asteroid(별 모양)와 같은 경우처럼요.
