Originally posted by Sophie Nice, language is awesome. I also like old English. It has soem words really close to Dutch. Like "athelstan" which translates to "edelsteen" in Dutch and of course "edelstein" in German. Kind of weird how it got to be "Gemstone" in current English.
ethel means "noble" in old english. the word has deeper roots in roman legislation and politics: "aedilis", latin for magistrate, basically meant power, wealth, status... pretty much what nobility is about. later into the roman empire, aedilis became aedile, a person in charge of the public treasury, giving it the relation to gems, an obvious symbol of wealth and power. as time passed the word became a masculine name, then a feminine name. parents naming their daughter ethel, adelaide, or any other name that is centered around the word basically means that the person might as well be a gemstone, whether they mean beauty, rarity, uniqueness, value, etc.
the classical element ether also is related to the word. ether was supposed to be the element that made up the space between the earth and the heavens, and in greek mythology the word "aether" was used to describe the essence of absolute purity that the gods breathed. speaking of which, the greek god "aether", a primordial deity who accurding to orphic hymns, represented the "bright air" and light and contrasted nyx which explains why the word was associated with sheen and general illumination. we see here how down through time the word started out as being related to luminosity, brightness, and purity in ancient greece. take that, and add the fact that aether was the embodiment of zeus' might and power, and people start to associate the word with authority and purity. that word goes through more evolution in the hands of rome, a group of people who had very organized and clear cut leadership structure, and the word becomes something to describe nobility and later, the management and head of wealth. later, move it into the hands of the gauls with the help of roman cultural diffusion by way of inclusion into the empire due to being extremely prosperous. late iron age gallic culture had a big focus on intricacy and splendor, with the mediterranean gauls being very wealthy due to the material worth of their exports alone. cue the attempted gallic revolt led by vercingetorix, which was the head of pretty much the most powerful tribe in the area. it failed, he was a hero, the attachment of nobility to the word, etc etc on down the line until you get the german word "edel" that means gem.
to get a good grasp on things like that you have to think about it as if it happened today and how words, culture, society, etc evolves as things happen. take for instance the discussion of "fam", the word didnt always represent ironic shitposting... -

Originally posted by Sophie Yeah i agree, totally. You can be close to people without being a fag about it. So why are we even having this conversation? You are ascribing more meaning to the word "fam" than there is in reality. When i say "bro" i don't literally mean brother. I mean "friend".
when you say fam you arent using it as a huggy kissy gumdrops my little pony faggot ass word its a term of non-fruity endearment -

it was when the draft of the declaration that we know today was approved. it was also the date that copies of it began to be circulated by the press. -

Notice a pattern in the top responses?
“In revenge and in love woman is more barbaric than man is.” - Nietzche
The posts about the frequency of rape accusations and what the child goes through and having animals put down are the worst. Marriage is for absolute fools. Of course no one expects things to turn out this way, if they did why on earth would they ever get married in the first place? But it does then there's an enormous barrier to separation, along with a guaranteed imbalanced payment in their favor in case of exit, which is exactly what women desire (subconsciously) do to their biological predispositions/evolutionary-reproductive strategy.
Jesus fucking christ, I'm reading through that thread and women are absolute fucking concentrated evil. It is not a stereotype that one average women are substantially more emotional, less logical (A while ago I linked to a study that found that rational and emotional states were mutually exclusive based on analysis of neurological activity), and have poorer control over their emotions. Regardless of the reasons (muh culture/societal influences) for this it doesn't change the fact that this is reality.
thats why you should be patient and get to REALLY know the other person before you make a lifelong commitment that binds you with them... if people werent so concerned with just fucking or too caught up in infatuation that they fail to evaluate their s/o as a person and as a partner this kind of thing wouldnt happen -
