Africaans is a dialect of Dutch - European language.
Albanian - European.
Arabic - the first non Indo-European language in this list and what do you know, no leading "m-sound". More like the opposite of that.
Aymara, Azeri and Basque are also all non Indo-European and what do you, also no leading "m-sound".
The list continues with a whole pile of Slavic and other European language, holy crap "mother" in Bosnian and Bulgarian sounds really similar - what a shock!
I'm just scanning through the list now, Hawaiian seems to be the firs non Indo-European language to have the "ma" sound. I bet if you look you'll find the "ma" sound in whole pile of other Hawaiian words too! Are they all about sucking?
Hungarian is in Europe but is a Finno-Uguric language and again no "m-sound".
Indonesian no "ma" sound. And I'm tired of proving my point.
This "the sound of the world for mother is similar to suckling" seems like utter bullshit to me.
Leading with the m-sound just happens to be common in the Indo-European language family.
And I don't even know what the heck your second link is!?
