Jopah believed that ancient Talman science, philosophy, music and languages reflected one underlying reality, and all of them were simply lenses through which the human world and possibly even the physical world could be understood comprehensively.

The language of the Foranlaíd, [[Tigol]], with its rich phonetic and grammatical system provided him with lots of musical and philosophical ideas. He believed that Tigol was unique among Trician languages in that it had sounds articulated at three different points in the body: the throat (voicing mutation), the mouth ("plain" consonants and vowels), and the nose (nasal mutation). Its grammar, Jopah believed, reflected an underlying action-oriented philosophy. A Tigol verb and its absolute and conjunct conjugations reflect the essence of the action described by it, and that the dominant languages spoken in his time, according to him, work too mechanically and fail to capture this essence. | The language of the Foranlaíd, [[Tigol]], with its rich phonetic and grammatical system provided him with lots of musical and philosophical ideas.

His commentary on the story of the round table from the Imthumăytil foreshadowed the discovery of quarks. He wondered if perhaps, the atoms and particles that were know at the time are just combinations of other smaller particles acting in concert. | His commentary on the story of the round table from the Imthumăytil foreshadowed the discovery of quarks.
