Huh? A Universal Word Found in Almost
Every Language?
There is a word found in almost every language and
it isn't mama or dada, baby’s first words. It isn't baby’s later words, like no
or mine either, but those were also my guesses. Next I figured it might be a
word that expresses great emotion, like love or its antithesis, hate, but those aren't right either. With Thanksgiving on my mind I next guessed yum. I am also
writing this before a meal, any meal yet yum is still wrong even if my tummy
disagrees. Yawns don’t have a word, so that’s not it. Yes, I just yawned and my
stomach growled for emphasis but if I had a buzzer it would sound to let you
know that yawns and stomach noises are not the universally understood and
uttered word. I know hola and hello are close but definitely not the same so it isn't a word of greeting and besides Spanish and English are just two languages.
This universal word found in almost every language is used in a lot more than
just two languages. Huh? Give up yet? I did. The universal word is huh, (Duh!).
