Very informative. Now it is my turn to dispel some of your confusion, even if it was only one sentence for an entire video. The five pointed star used to represent all the classical alchemical elements, earth, air, fire, water and spirit, and spirit was on top, suggesting "Spirit over flesh or the physical." This was considered a christian message for a while and you can even see 5 pointed stars on some old cathedrals, so it was at one time considered a christian symbol. I am not sure how, but it fell out of favor as being "magic" instead of "Religious" and the pentacle became associated with superstition and witchcraft, but in some communities remained as being a christian symbol meaning "The spirit triumphs over all things." Ironically that is also why the point down star is considered evil, as it says "The physical triumphs over spirit."

Der Zauberer may share a root with (or in fact be a root FOR) the English word Sorcerer

According to Etymonline.com, the word "sorcerer" is derived from a French word, which in turn is derived from a Latin word. But, it is possible that the German word has Latin origin or common roots. Duden.de mentions an early medieval word (zaubarari) as its earliest recorded source, but that does not mean it couldn't be related to the medieval Latin word "sortarius." They could have a common Indo-European root, too. But, I did not find any evidence for that.

Hexa(Greek) has nothing to do with the root hex in German. The 'h' in Greek comes from PIE 's' so Greek hexa is etymologically related to German Sechs.

Muste wieder schmauchen Frauchen?? Bezaubernd, erbauend, lauernd, kauernd, versauend, kauend, wiederkauend, brauend, verstauend, zubauend, abbauend, Die obigen Worte will mein "Handy" nicht anerkennen. Plus viele andere. "Handy" ein typisches Deutsches Wort, das ich erst relativ spät im Leben von meinen Kinder, die Großeltern sind, gelernt habe. Natürlich kannte ich das Wort 'handy' im Englischen.

Danke für den Kommentar! Schön mal wieder von Dir zu hören. Ja, "Handy" ist nicht mein Lieblingswort im Deutschen. Ein typisches falschverstandenes Wort, das dann von irgendeinem überbezahlten Idioten von einer schwachsinningen Werbeagentur ins Deutsche reingezwungen wurde. Da sträubt sich mir das Fell.

Thanks . . . As a bilingual English-German person (like you) it just sounds completely asinine and braindead, just like so much in commercialized German.@@user-pp6fx7si4g
