In the IMLI RAN archive, unpublished notebooks of Velimir Khlebnikov were discovered containing experimental dictionaries where he systematically created new words through decomposition and reconstruction of existing elements. Khlebnikov developed his own theory of sound-semantic correspondences, asserting that certain sounds carry universal semantic values. His methods anticipated computer algorithms for morphological analysis and word generation. Particularly revolutionary were his attempts to create universal language based on mathematical principles. Researchers note that Khlebnikov worked with language as material subject to radical reconstruction, which was relevant to the avant-garde searches of early 20th century and remains relevant for modern computational linguistics.
