Tribute : “the celiThe in our Art and Life"

20 articles, at 2 first pages full of laughter. Το μοναδικό παυσίλυπο στην εποχή του Δ.Ν.Τ.

writes o George Damianos

For its importance of laughter in our life, it is enough to remember that the word laugh (< I.E. *yellow > shine) is identical with L. serenity. 24grammata.com

The word joke produced by city and determined, already, from the time of Aristophanes the subtle and refined humor of the bourgeois. The word has a similar meaning jape < the cheerful story of the inhabitants of the country, city. Laughter is not only associated with her frolic (thymus: inner world) but also with sarcasm (< original. importance: "the tearing of the flesh") as well as with hermockery (< sucker < bitch < sheared goat), to denote anything done ridiculously).

I'm kidding: The first phonograph records, were called "plates", it was made of bakelite. Nightclubs had a phonograph for patrons' revelry and large quantities of records, because Bakelite did not have a long life and wore out within a few days. The fate of the worn plates, rather, you suspected her: revelers were breaking them, as later the dishes will be broken, and so the phrase remained "just kidding". More at24grammata.com

The word Demon : The "spoils" of the winners

Demon: how the most sacred word of the ancients became synonymous with the devil

writes o George Damianos

The semantic mutation of the word demons reminds something of the spoils of the victors. It reminds of the ancient aristocrats who ended up in the galleys of the victorious Romans. It reminds, reminds... countless cases that confirm that the winner never respects "the sacred and the faithful" of the defeated.

Let's get, Nevertheless, things from scratch. In antiquity the word Demon (male. and female) it was, perhaps, the most pious word. Produced by r. yes (: I give each one his fortune). Although it coexisted with the word God, however, daemon referred to impersonal and undefined power, while the god in the anthropomorphic divine entity. The concept of demon was equated with Fate, την Ειμαρμένη

also, in l. Demona attributed the meaning of guardian angel "vs. guardian demon". Answer’ here and the word bliss (: happiness, it identified the one with the Demon's favor) 24grammata.com

Nevertheless, in the course of filming, the new religion is established: Christianity. The word that declared the pure god of the Ancients had to acquire a negative meaning as a synonym for God becomes synonymous with the Devil. The good angel becomes an evil demon. The demons, most, they are the evil spirits,( … woe to the losers… ) the angel of evil, the fallen angel headed by satan (< satana in Hebrew: the opponent). So, the words were created: ingenious, demonical, demon struck, exorcist, demon worship, pandemonium Mr. a. With this meaning it was also transferred to Hesperia (Italian: demonic, demon mania, pandemonium. French: demon. English:daemon, daimon. Germ: Damon)

It seems that the word did not become sterile even in the Greek city of Eudaemon, in the Red Sea, 1the century. B.C. The Romans will rename/translate it to “Arabia Felix”. Today, is the port of Aden (Yemen). 24grammata.com

The last "hotspots of resistance" are recorded in the word: bliss, where the demon is carried in the sense of god. So, to remind that where we are now spitting (B.C. "damn you possessed"), some had staked the salvation of their souls.

The history of words: Gaddafi, Libya, Oil and Gasoline

Αφιέρωμα στη Libya (history / civilization)

writes o George Damianos

The name Muammar al-Gaddafi (Muammar Muhammad al-Gaddafi, Muammar Gaddafi, pronunciation:‎ Muʿammar al-Qaḏḏāfī), established in Greece with the pronunciation "Gadafi", instead of "Gaddafi". The name Gaddafi comes from the Arabic verb gadf > extrusion, which means “to throw, fly", but also "slander". Therefore, the name Gaddafi is interpreted as o “Ballon”, but also the “communicating”, The “detractor”, The “slanderer”. The names of the families of the nomads of northern Africa, in their majority, or specify the place of origin, whether they are just nicknames (: nicknames). Correction: Kamal Rahimi.24grammata.com

With the term Libya, since the time of Homer, and later in Herodotus , they identified either B. Africa or the entire Continent of Africa. The word identifies the ancient Libu or Rbu people. Επειδή στην ιερογλυφική γραφή δεν υπάρχουν φωνήεντα και χρησιμοποιείται το ίδιο σύμβολο για το “R”και το “L” για αυτό και, initially, was read in various ways: Rabu/ Labu/ Rebu etc. The final sound was established with the Greek pronunciation as Livys (Gen. -son) 24grammata.com

The word oil (< stone + oil) he is of Greek origin. It was produced by the German geologist Georg Bauer, also known as Georgius Agricola. L. Petroleum is first mentioned in Bauer's work: Of the Nature of Fossils, ed. 1546

THE petrol it is a volatile (that is, vents easily) liquid produced by the distillation of petroleum. The origin of the word starts from Arabic: luben dgiawi (mtf: Javanese frankincense). Initially, he identified the smell of a sapling (styrax benzoe), which grows in the region of Java and Sumatra. The 1833 ο Γερμανός χημικός E. Mitscherlich θα μετατρέψει το luBen Dgiawi, The day for the draw of the two lucky ones benzoin (the -lu-, from luben, will “cut off”, because it was mistakenly considered an article). So, because of this mistake the topic benz was created and from here many words were produced, such as: benzo (the plant), benzene, petrol, gasoline engine, petrol pump (it first appeared 1905, from S.F. Bowser & Co), gas station and many others.24grammata.com
