I think all the languages have an "m" in the word used for "mamma" by babies. There is a sequence of sounds that babies make.

Actually there is.
The Korean people say
Ah-ma which means momma
Ah-ma-ne which is more like mother
Ah-ma-nim which is more like honorable mother
I can't use the Korean characters; I will be reported. It is a shame that a certain uneducated person reports a professor, just because he feels inept.
