It is not a word of a "natural language" with any currency in the people. Right, please?

He is infamous for having worded an answer in a misleading way that, indeed, included the phrase "I created the Internet".No, I don’t think so. I was just joking (I’m in a crazy mood, right now; no alcohol, either)!
I think Al Gore once claimed to have invented the Internet, or something.
Wrong, please?Sorry.

Muhammad could not read nor writeThis is 2019. Can there still be people who think words are not human inventions? That would be quite interesting.

A word has to be current/in-vogue in speech and in writing in the people to become a part of the natural or ordinary language. The word cited by one does not qualify for this discussion.Wrong, please?

"He did not claim to have invented the words at the time"Robert Heinlein invented the words "grok" (Stranger in a Strange Land) and "waldo" (Waldo).
grok-understanding a thing so fully as to become one with it.
waldo-mechanical, robotic, remote manipulators.
He also popularized several words and phrases including:
TANSTAAFL, short for There Ain't No Such Thing as a Free Lunch, an existing term that refers to the fact that things supposedly given free always have some real cost, popularized in The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress.
Moonbat used in United States politics as a pejorative political epithet referring to progressives or leftists, was originally the name of a space ship in his story Space Jockey.
Speculative fiction, a term Heinlein used for the separation of serious, consistent Science Fiction writing, from the pop "sci fi" of the day, which generally took great artistic license with human knowledge, amounting to being more like space fantasy than science fiction.
He did not claim to have invented the words at the time, he just invented them for use in his stories.
Unless there is evidence to the contrary, and I do not know of any, all words are the invention of people.

I do not think the following will be of interest to followers of Abrahamic religions, but I put it in for its informative value. Prior to Homos, Hominini (Chimps and our distance forebears) used sounds and grunts.
It was mostly undisputed that pre-human australopithecines did not have communication systems significantly different from those found in great apes in general. However, a 2017 study on Ardipithecus ramidus challenges this belief. Scholarly opinions vary as to the developments since the appearance of the genus Homo some 2.5 million years ago. Some scholars assume the development of primitive language-like systems (proto-language) as early as Homo habilis (2.3 million years ago) while others place the development of primitive symbolic communication only with Homo erectus (1.8 million years ago) or Homo heidelbergensis (0.6 million years ago), and the development of language proper with Anatomically Modern Homo sapiens with the Upper Paleolithic revolution less than 100,000 years ago."
