5.0 out of 5 stars
Etymology Dictionary
This book and its companion coverage of A to K are good, inexpensive books on the subject. My purchase of the books was one of curiosity rather than absolute need. The entries are interesting and well covered.

if you are looking for this kind of etymology...................
I bought these [2] books many,many years ago, when i was not aware of the facts described below. The writer must have spent a significant part of his live on this work! It maybe very nice if you like "modern, more superficial made up etymology". if you would like more, then go back to much deeper, real sources and look for Hebrew/English books in case you know...

It maybe very nice if you like "modern, more superficial made up etymology". if you would like more, then go back to much deeper, real sources and look for Hebrew/English books in case you know the Hebrew alphabet. really : love should be connected with the Hebrew for heart which is :lev and blank [white] has the Hebrew root of LAVAN [L-V-N] in it.B-L-N-K [B=V] and so on and on............ |
