RE: Language That Relates Us 🌀 Lev (לב) - Heart

in #language7 years ago

Shalom! What a great topic! I love considering language and our common roots...and I just realized the significance of you username 💛

English is my native language, and you already discussed here how similar Love is to Lev, so I'll add something else that I think is beautiful: As I understand it, the Quechua language from the Andes is as old & sacred as Hebrew or Sanskrit.

Their phrase for thank you translates to "doves fly in my heart", and you're welcome is "half of you is half of me".

So...thank you/peace/half of you is half of me @inphiknit 💛

Sort:  

Oh I like both of those sentiments, and they are appropriate meanings for their uses as thank you and you're welcome. Very interesting.

I hope we can all find the roots of our words and respect their original meanings along with the new.

You like Phi? ^~

Shalom :)

Oh yeah!! Phi is so fundamentally pleasing!!

I like how every part of your statement is perfectly, literally, accurate!

Phi is;

Fundamental. (The universe shows it at every level.)

Pleasing. (Psych/beauty tests prove it pleasing to us, and probably to animals to, if they could test it.)

Forever! (The math states it.)

Nice one!
