Abstract
A linguist’s search for evidence of Natural Language content phenomena often ends with analyses of expression morphological etymologies. These are far more productive, if content-related and self-explanatory expression morphologies are considered. But unexpectedly rich results are gained if the language analyst directs his attention to the source of meanings. Newly created meanings or content units undergo certain treatments, until they are added to the wisdom of mankind or the human content thesaurus, HCT. The source of new meanings, the location where they are originated or conceived, is nowadays quite surely the human brain. One day this might be substituted by an artificial concept of an individual content thesaurus, ICT, in which new meanings are produced artificially. This means that an artificial ICT will be capable of executing original thinking.
