  • Human suffering from destruction of war to me pains me regardless if its in the middle east or right in my own backyard. Their pain disturbs me. War is EVIL! it should have become obsolete a long time ago we're civilized enough as a world to be able to work out things between nations w/o having to send our youth to blindly kill people to line the rich's pockets

    • Appendix:Proto-Germanic/ubilaz

      *This entry contains Proto-Germanic reconstructed words and roots. As such, the term(s) in this entry are not directly attested, but are hypothesized to have existed based on comparative evidence.
      Proto-Germanic

      Etymology

      From Proto-Indo-European *upélos (“evil”, literally "going over or beyond (acceptable limits)"), from Proto-Indo-European *upo, *up, *eup (“down, up, over”).

      Alternative etymology relates *ubilaz to Proto-Indo-European *wep- (“bad”), making it cognate with Old Irish fel ("bad"), Hittite (huwap(p)-/hup(p)-, "to mistreat").

      Pronunciation

      IPA: /ˈu.βi.lɑz/
      Adjective

      *ubilaz (comparative *wirsizô, superlative *wirsistaz)

      bad, evil

        • The point is to demonstrate how our early ancestors communicated with one another, no matter which Indo-European language you speak today.
          It also shows how words change meaning over time, through successive languages.
          Through the generations, people have added additional meanings and contexts to what these words actually mean.
          If you look, 'ubilaz' is the antonym or opposite of 'gōdaz'.

          Here, I will copy and paste more "shit", so that perhaps people will learn what the word they like to throw around really means:
