fabula, φωνή, басня, भाषा

Both English infant and French enfant 'child' go back to Latin infans 'non-speaking', cognate with Latin fabula 'story' (hence Portuguese falar and Spanish hablar 'to speak'), Greek φωνή [pʰonē] 'sound', Russian басня [bāsnja] 'fable' and Hindi भाषा [bʰāṣā] 'language', whence bahasa (Malay; Indonesia).
