One day, while trying to find something in the glove compartment of my car, I thought: "This is a mess!" and at that moment it dawned on me, the glove compartment from the word mess. We Russians like to call everything by its proper name. I wondered if only the words glove compartment and dacha carry a meaning that can be understood without an etymological dictionary.
By the way, etymology (Old Greek. studying the origin of words (and less often morphemes). Next, I will cite the School etymological dictionary of the Russian language. The origin of words. - M.: Bustard N. M. Shansky, T. A. Bobrova 2004. - “Back. The origin is unclear. Interpreted as Old Russian. borrowing from Polish. lang., in which spina "spine, spine" goes back to lat. spina - also. " So, stop, here everything is clear sleep (By the way, sleeping on the back is considered the most useful and comfortable). If everything is clear with the word, then nothing is clear with the dictionary, or it is not an etymological dictionary, because the truth, the basic meaning of the word is not revealed, or skis do not go. Let's go back, in the same dictionary the word dacha comes from suffer. and last time. the verb to give. Literally - "given" (as a gift). This means that the phenomenon of the literal meaning of the word as such is not denied by scientists. But why then not in all directions?
One of the goals of the break in our thinking of the word and the image that it carries is for everyone to think that everything is accidental, and we are grains of sand in the universe, which was formed due to a sudden (outside / planned) explosion from nothing. But no my dears, perhaps the author of this theory could sneeze with Rembrandt's canvases, but this is not given to everyone else. In nature, in the world, everything is ordered, all cycles are closed, all niches are occupied. The fact that we do not see or understand something does not mean that it does not exist. In this world there is an ORDER - by / row (by rows), REGULARITIES are laws / dimensions and there are RULES - rules (that which governs-corrects). For example, I will give a road, it goes in rows, and the rules are bumpers. You should not try to destroy the bumpers (rules) in order to check the strength of your car. your path will end quickly. Not knowing the rules does not absolve you from responsibility.
Discovering the secrets of the Russian language, comprehending the images of words, we find the keys to understanding the world and life.
"The best way to hide something is to put it in the most visible place." And I will add on my own: but to make sure that no one knows that this is generally something important. People who wear glasses know that one of the best places to lose glasses is on their heads. And now from jokes to business.
Today you will find yourself in the SlovoVeda "kitchen". Together we will look for the original (basic) syllable (root) - a word that has already fallen out of use, but previously had a great meaning, which means that its traces should have remained in words derived from it and extant.
According to the official version, the word sun comes from praslav. * sъlnьse - decrease. education from * sъlnь, cf. salmon (see), Art. - Slav. free ἀνήλιος (Sup.), (Frenkel, ZfslPh 13, 212), consonant with lat. sōl. But there is something wrong with this sun, for example, an unnatural sound (sun-bottom-body, i.e. the diminutive character of the word). Well, who will derogatoryly call the great luminary? And if you make a mistake in the adjective sunny by one letter, then in general it will turn out to be sunny.). Brrr … somehow not harmonious. We'll have to admit that the word is of Latin origin.
And so, let's start a fascinating investigation, the purpose of which will be to find a little more than the name of the sun - light. Most likely, many of the phenomena associated with the true name of the sun must have its name at its root. For example, we all use the word "oral", but the noun of the mouth, from which it came from, has already gone out of use. We will be brave trackers and will try to "attack" the trail of the lost word.
Let us recall the words that we use in everyday life to this day describing the processes associated with the sun. Early in the morning when the sun rises - dawn, when the sun sets - sunset. And when the rays of the sun are refracted in a multitude of water droplets, a rainbow is obtained. I also remembered the words eclipse and dawn. Consider these words:
Early - RA / NEW;
Dawn - ONCE (first, one) / LIGHT; (I remind you that the letter "z" to "s" was changed only after the October revolution)
Sunset - FOR / KAT (fell) the sun;
Rainbow - RA / ARC (no explanations are needed here);
Zarya - FOR / RA (By the way, this word is spelled this way in the Belarusian language). But dawn is the glow of the sky before sunrise and after sunset, caused by the reflection of the sun's rays from the upper layers of the atmosphere, a phenomenon following the sun.
Eclipse - FOR / DARKNESS (The sun is dark or darkened. The phenomenon of a solar eclipse is associated with the fact that it does not turn off, does not go out, but is simply darkened).
Discarding the words sunset and eclipse describing actions, as well as dawn (first light), looking closely, a common syllable is found - RA.
Sunlight for our ancestors was a symbol of goodness and the creator of all living things. For many pagan peoples, the sun was the main god, and this is understandable, because without sunlight, all living things perish. Ra - is light not only in the literal sense, but also light, as the antagonist of evil, that is, good.
So that's what Ra Zadornov and the others are talking about! Do we need a secret book that has never been seen by anyone or a psychic medium to find out these secrets?
ps Please take into account that not all words with the letters "r" and "a" next to it will carry at their root meaning (good-light). Not decrypted: all borrowed words (rendezvous, knapsack, radiation, etc.), words that have two consonants after the syllable "ra" (for example, a comb, a plant) in the first example, the word-forming prefix is the prefix "time", which already carries a different meaning, and the word plant was formed from the root growth with the replacement of the root vowel (growth - grow). And finally, the words that have historically changed the letter in connection with the forcible reduction of the Russian initial letter.
Having solved the equation, we must carry out verification work to make sure that the answer is correct.
Ra - is light not only in the literal sense, but also light, as the antagonist of evil, that is, good. Also, this syllable was used in the meaning of God, because God was inseparable from good and God was the creator and maintainer of everything that exists.
Let me remind you that words with 2 or more vowels in their composition are a combination of full or abbreviated words describing the meaning of this phenomenon / action. And now, having learned that "RA" is light-good, the sun, let's take a fresh look at the words we know:
when M (alo) / RA (light) - darkness, when RA (good) / ACCESS (received) - joy, when (kind-light) RA / SOUL is welcoming, when (good-light) RA / S / UMom - mind, when the CULT / light (good) RA is culture, when to lead / (good light) RA - faith.
If the light of the "soul of the sun" - good was called "Ra", by analogy the soul-body, the physical fire of the sun had its own separate name - Yar (yar) - the very heat, fire, ardor, heat.
From this basic root came the words: bright (very light, dazzling), brightness, hot, as well as one of the names of the sun - Yarilo and even the word fierce, fierce. hot, ardent (as in the expression "the blood boils in my veins").
But the word yar-ravine is of Tatar origin and has nothing to do with the sun, and also does not have extensive words derived from it.
Perhaps someone will remember that there are also spring agricultural crops, and so their name is not associated with lowlands and ravines. In contrast to winter crops (Leave / WINTER), the life cycle of which requires overwintering (they germinate before the onset of winter, and continue their life cycle in the spring). Spring - annual crops sown in the spring (when the heat comes, the heat of the sun increases) and ripening in the summer or autumn of the same year.
The basic root "KOL" is recognized even by official science.
QTY - the root of the word denoting a circle, a circle, a rim.
From this root came: a colo, a wheel, a chariot, a flask, a ring, a knee, a deck, a well, a column, an ear (leg), a cap, a quiver, chain mail, sausage, color and many others.
If you pick up a round stick sharpened from one end, and in one word - KOL and stick (KOL) into the material through and through, there will be a PUNCH, if the matter falls apart, then there will be a split, and if there is just a scratch without breaking the integrity - SPL. If you put the stakes close to each other to build a fence, we get a palisade. From the verb to prick - prick, even the word "prick" occurred.
The volume of derivative words is so huge that it is impossible to fit them into one publication, and I think it will be interesting for you to find these words yourself.
Even the fairytale character kolobok (round side) told us about his appearance by his name.
Further, I will not draw conclusions about the meaning of the root, since the words speak for themselves.
Mora - darkness, darkness.
Blink - close and open the eyelids (light-darkness-light-darkness-light).
To muzzle - to torment, to exhaust.
Sea - the sea is an accumulation of salty-bitter waters in vast depressions. Sea water is detrimental to land inhabitants and plants.
Derived words:
a sailor is a person experienced in maritime affairs.
To starve is to take life, to destroy.
Frost - cold, cold, in which water changes its state of aggregation, and the temperature drops below zero. Frost is harmful to many plants and, in some cases, is dangerous to animals and humans. The whole earth, nature, as it were, is dying and covered with a white shroud awaits warmth, the revival of life. Moro / land.
Derived words:
ice cream is a frozen treat;
walrus is a large mammal from the pinniped group inhabiting the far north;
cloudberry is one of the most frost-resistant berries, growing only in northern latitudes;
fruit drink - frosty / juice. For the winter, the berries were soaked in barrels and later they froze, breaking off a piece and melting it in the oven to make a berry drink - fruit drink.
Moroka - darkness, haze.
Derived word:
fool - deceive, cheat, darken.
Morgue - no comment.
Carrying out rash borrowings of foreign words, you can get such a paradox of using the root pestilence as the word morality - a word that personifies light and life, morality.
Morality is unspoken rules, generally accepted in any society, what is accepted and approved by society, society likes (in Russian, morality). Or maybe it is not without reason that a society that has abandoned ancestral foundations, modesty, honor, a society in which it is the norm to drink alcohol, smoke, abandon a family, a society in which unborn children are killed began to call its norms and traditions - MORAL (the one that will lead to extinction). Think about it.
Yours, SlovoVed.
