> What's the etymology of lien then

I cannot speak to that but here are some general points to know when researching English:

  1. English is a Germanic language originating in Saxony and transported to Britain after Rome skedaddled.

  2. English gained Danish words, influence as the Danes conquered about 45% of present-day England in the 8-900s.

  3. The Normans-basically Vikings that grabbed onto French civilization in Normandy around the time the Danes were BTFO England-invaded England completely eclipsing the English and Dane nobility…hence English has more French in it that you would think.

(Fun fact on that note how in English we have two words for pigs and cattle: pork and pig, beef (beouf) and cow. Pig and cow are English words (one-syllable nature gives it a way) because the Normans took over the ruling class not peasants. Peasants used the word to mean live animals, ruling nobility-now French-used the table or 'dead' version, beef and pork.

Chickens weren't known to Europe until after the invasion so same word for live and dead.

  1. During the closing days of the Tudor period there was a revival of Greek and Latin learning. English got a shit load of Greek and Latin words-some of them invented during that time. Scholars back then made up words following Greek and Latin grammar pretty closely so 'made-up' is perhaps a bit rough.

  2. Did the Celts think I would forget them! Hell no! Scots, Welsh, Irish, even words from Cornish and Manx help make up English's rich tapestry!

Anon you spooky-dooky'd me.

I had a dream last night the guy on the right kept complaining to me while I was trying to eat breakfast that the atomists think they have won and will not concede defeat from 2500 years ago.

I mean he wasn't annoying…he was just acting like himself.

I saw your post and thought somebody walked over my grave.

I'm not a linguist just a computer programmer who had a nervous breakdown and entering my third year of NEET. I LOVE learning about history, linguistics, and geography though.

I'm recovering looking for work next month.

Anyway I love that you asked that question about Anglo.

I had never thought about it before but my mind started thinking 'angle' immediately though now I suspect angle is French. The theoretic Masonic connection is something worth digging into. FYI any research of Masonic stuff pre-Enlightment should include digs into Knights Templar.

All I know off the top of my head right no is England means Anglo-land.

I don't know about the other guy but as for me I used to not engage religion in the research threads at all. I didn't want to risk derailing the bread.

However, after Trump fucked on back to Mar-a-Lago with or without the football fuck if I know what he did I laxed up on my own rule.

All I mean to point out is lately I've been thinking that humans over-estimate their will and what they can do and under-estimate God's will…especially since God is Sovereign.

I do appreciate your engaging with me rationally and as a believer and not throwing out the S word as happens to me sometimes.
