Description

Although ibam in Tamil denotes the elephant, it does not seem in that form to be indigenous; it has apparently crept into the language after the Aryans came into the country. Yane or ane is the word commonly current. But ibam can easily be derived from the fact that it is monosyllabic, it denotes an emotional sound. Both these characteristics stamp the word as pertaining to the earliest stage in language-formation Exclamation of wonder or surprise is expressed by the sound a or a a (a common doubling device). The latter soon becomes ava, the euphonic v bridging the none too easily negotiable gulf between two vowels. The largest animal early man hunted was the mammoth, an ancestor of the elephant, and when he first laid his eyes on it, he naturally exclaimed a in wonder or surprise at the huge size of the creature. That emotional sound has ever since stood for the big beast par excellence. The development of this word could be indicated thus: a, aa, ava, avu, ane. While ane is the usual word in modern parlance, avu should have been in vogue at the time of the Aryan entry into India. Incidentally, the derivation suggested in Sanskrit for ibha, it is interesting to note, does refer to an exclamation of surprise or wonder. The emotional sound, though, is supposed to be i, the natural noise emitted, while being surprised or awe-, struck, is mostly a or o, sometimes ai or e but never i. The Aryans, it would appear, had known the way avu arose but, while coining their own derivative, ibha, had failed to realise that i could hardly designate surprise or wonder, obviously because the word was foreign to them.
