Can anyone tell me what Vulcans actually call their own planet?
I suspect it isn't actually 'Vulcan'.
Also what does it mean? (e,g. 'where we live', 'land' etc.).
Also, I believe it has been shown that all languages evolved
from simple sounds, easy to make and meaning either simple
imperatives like 'come', 'go', 'hide', 'run', or
things like:'how', 'why'
or 'Mama' and 'me', 'my'!!!
Clearly  Vulcans may find sounds easy which humans do not,
but I wonder if anyone has thought about the evolution of
the language?
