# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kauz

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kauz. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kauz, masculine, ‘screech-owl,’ from the equivalent Middle High German kûtze, kûtz, masculine (rarely occurs); in Old High German as well as in the other Old Teutonic dialects the word is wanting, therefore it is difficult to determine its Gothic form. We might assume Gothic *kutts or *kûdna; the first partly suggests Greek βῦζα, ‘owl’ (for gûdja? β as in βαίνα, ‘to go,’ βύσσος, ‘fine flax, equivalent to Modern High German Kaute). Moreover, Modern High German pet names for birds are formed ending in tz, Spatz, Stieglitz, Kiebitz; hence Kau-ze may have to be divided, and thus Greek βύας, ‘owl,’ would be most closely connected with Teutonic kau, kû.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kaue

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kaue. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kaue, feminine, ‘coop, cage, pen,’ from Middle High German kouwe (köwe), feminine, ‘miner's hut or shed over a shaft’ (Old High German *kouwa, Gothic *kaujô, are wanting); from Latin cavea (intermediate form cauja?), ‘cavity.’ See also Käfig.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kehle

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kehle. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kehle, feminine, ‘throat; channel, fluting,’ from the equivalent Middle High German and Middle Low German kele, feminine, Old High German chëla; corresponding to Dutch keel, Anglo-Saxon čeole (obsolete in English) and čeolor. In Gothic perhaps *kilô (genitive *kilôns). Since Teutonic k is derived from pre-Teutonic g, we may compare Sanscrit gala and Latin gula, ‘throat.’ See Herz.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Keim

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Keim. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Keim, masculine, ‘germ, bud, shoot,’ from the equivalent Middle High German kîm, kîme, masculine, Old High German chîm, chîmo, masculine (Gothic *keima, masculine). The Teutonic root is kî, which is widely diffused in the Teutonic group. Gothic has only the participle of a verb derived from this root, us-kijans, ‘sprouted,’ for which, however, an earlier variant, keins, ‘germinated,’ is assumed by the verb us-keinan (-nôda). With the same root kî are connected the dental derives. Anglo-Saxon cîþ, Old Saxon kîð, Old High German chîdi ( ​ikîdi), Middle High German kîde, Modern High German dialectic Keide, ‘shoot.’ Old Saxon and Old High German kînan, ‘to germinate,’ has a present affix n of the root kî; the identical Anglo-Saxon cînan, ‘to spring up, burst, burst to pieces, germinate,’ and the corresponding Anglo-Saxon substantive činu, Middle English chine, ‘rift, crack,’ prove that the meaning ‘to germinate’ originated in the actual perception of budding.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kaul-barsch

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kaul-barsch. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kaul-barsch, ‘round posterior,’ Kaul-kopf, ‘bull-head,’ Kaul-quappe, ‘ruff’; in these compounds Kaul signifies ‘a ball of small circumference’; Middle High German kûle, a variant of kugele (compare steil from steigel); older Modern High German Kaule; compare Keule.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Keib

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Keib. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Keib, Kaib, masculine, ‘vulgar person,’ properly ‘carrion’; simply Modern High German, and only in Suabian and Alemannian.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Keiler

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Keiler. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Keiler, Keuler, masculine, ‘wild boar,’ Modern High German only, probably not allied to Keule; borrowed from Lit. kuilýs, ‘boar’.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kebse

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kebse. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kebse, feminine, ‘concubine,’ from the equivalent Middle High German kębse, kębese, Old High German chębisa, chębis; in Gothic perhaps *kabisi. Compare Anglo-Saxon čęfes, čyfes. Unfortunately the word is etymologically quite obscure. The meaning is an important one in the history of manners and customs; the Anglo-Saxon word signifies ‘concubine’ and ‘servant,’ and the corresponding masculine kefser in Old Icelandic slave; it is evident that female captives were made slaves and concubines (compare Anglo-Saxon wealh, ‘Kelt. slave,’ wylen, ‘female slave, servant,’ under Welsch). The idea of ‘concubine,’ in spite of Tacitus’ highly-coloured picture of the Old Teutonic family life, is not foreign to ​Old Teutonic antiquity; but the important fact is, and this is confirmed by his general statements, that concubines were chosen from the prisoners, or rather the slaves; in antiquity the slaves were regarded as chattels; compare Latin mancipium, Greek ἀνδράποδον; Old Icelandic man, ‘slave,’ is neuter, and sometimes signifies ‘female slave, concubine.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kegel

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Kegel. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Kegel (1.), masculine, ‘cone, nine-pin, sight (of a gun),’ from Middle High German and Middle Low German k€gel, masculine, ‘nine-pin,’ also ‘stick, cudgel, Old High German chęgil, ‘stake, plug,’ allied to Middle Dutch kegghe, Dutch keg, ‘wedge,’ Modern High German and Bavarian kag, ‘stump.’ Old High German chęgil, ‘plug,’ may have been Gothic *kagils (from pre-Teutonic gagho-), and might be cognate with Greek γόμφο-ς (φ for gh), ‘plug, wooden nail, wedge,’ with the root syllable nasalised. It cannot be decided whether Lithuanian żaginýs, ‘stake, post’ (żagaras, ‘dry branch’), is allied to Kegel, or rather to Kufe, ‘cheek of a sledge.’
Kegel (2.), masculine, ‘bastard’ (retained in Modern High German only in the phrase Kind und Kegel, ‘kith and kin’), from Middle High German kęgel, kękel, ‘illegitimate child,’ Of obscure origin.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Keil

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Keil. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Keil, masculine, ‘wedge, keystone,’ from Middle High German kîl, ‘wedge, plug,’ with the curious variant kîdel (Modern High German dialectic Keidel), Old High German chîl, ‘plug’; both the Middle High German forms assume Gothic *keiþls’. Scandinavian keiler (Gothic *kaileis), masculine, ‘wedge,’ is abnormal; the root is kî, kai. Old Icelandic kill, ‘canal’ (compare the proper name Kiel), is probably not connected on account of the meaning; since Old High German and Middle High German kîl signifies ‘plug,’ the word is more probably allied to Anglo-Saxon cœ̂g, English key.

PREFACE
_______
Rousseau once sent to Voltaire an ode addressed to Posterity.
"Voici une lettre qui n'arrivera jamais à son adresse," said Voltaire, in his cruel way.
Perhaps this should discourage me from attempting to collect my rambling recollections under a title which is stolen from Petrarch; but I am encouraged by thinking that Petrarch will not care for this transparent appropriation of his forgotten title, and I am sure that I shall not care if Posterity never receives my letter. I shall not be here to watch for an answer.
And yet I shall be glad if a record of the changeful times in which I have lived gives pleasure to any one who reads my book now, or to those who come after me. It has been a remarkable era. Progress has harnessed several new steeds to her car since I started to travel onward. Life is much more full of comfort now than it has ever been. Some one asks, Is not life stifled in appliances? Are we any happier than our ancestors were? Is a single day of Europe worth a cycle of Cathay? Have we not taken on some neuralgias and malarias and nervous prostrations? I leave that question for Posterity to answer, and I am rather glad that I shall not be responsible for the reply.
But I will answer Mallock's question, "Is life worth ​living?" in the affermative. I have found it eminently so. Life has been an enjoyable experiment, and amusing, in spite of its sorrows and disappointments. Life is a success if we can work and laugh. It has been a perpetual pleasure to me to see luxury march on with giant tread; to watch the great city of New York grow; to welcome art and beauty into our houses; to see the statues and the buildings improve in every decade. It has even been a pleasure (the sure accompaniment of advancing years) to say, "Oh, we had greater geniuses on the stage and in the forum, and greater beauties at the balls, in the old time!" That gentle murmur of complaint is, however, lost in the magnificent march of the coming centuries. Quite worth while it is to have seen the transition period.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Staupe

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Staupe. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Staupe, feminine, ‘rod, scourge,’ from Middle High German (Middle German) stûpe, ‘post to which a criminal is bound and beaten with rods’; hence stäupen, ‘to flog, scourge,’ which occurs in Modern High German only. Corresponding to Old Frisian stûpa, ‘public chastisement with the rod.’ Early history obscure.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Stegreif

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Stegreif. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Modern High German Stegreif, masculine, ‘stirrup,’ from the equivalent Middle High German stëgreif, Old High German stëgareif. An Old Teutonic term, as is shown by the correspondence between High German and Anglo-Saxon stigerâp, English stirrup, Old Icelandic stigreip; literally ‘rope, ring for mounting a horse’ (the term Steigbügel, ‘stirrup,’ equivalent to Dutch stijgbeugel, is unknown to Middle High German and Old High German. See, however, Bügel).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Steig

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Steig. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Steig, masculine, ‘path, footway,’ from the equivalent Middle High German and Old High German stîc (genitive stîges), masculine; allied to steigen, ‘to mount,’ which is based on the equivalent Middle High German stîgen, Old High German stîgan, strong verb. The verb is common to Teutonic in the same sense; compare Old Saxon stîgan, Dutch stijgen, Anglo-Saxon stîgan (English to sty), Gothic steigan. The Teutonic root stī̆g (compare also Steg, steil) corresponds to the widely-diffused Aryan root stī̆gh, ‘to step, stride,’ which appears in Sanscrit (rare) stigh, ‘to step, stride,’ Greek στείχω, ‘to go,’ Latin vestigium, ‘track, trace,’ Old Slovenian stignąti, ‘to hasten’; hence the ​meaning of the verbal root has been modified in Teutonic — The verb steigern, ‘to raise, increase, put up to auction,’ allied to Middle High German and Old High German steigen, ‘to cause something to ascend, to elevate or extol something,’ occurs in early Modern High German only; hence the verb means literally ‘to cause something to mount in price.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Stauche

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Stauche. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Stauche, feminine, ‘veil, sleeve, muff, mitten,’ from Middle High German stûche, Old High German stûhha, feminine, ‘the broad pendant sleeve on a woman's dress, kerchief, veil, cloth, apron’; corresponding to Anglo-Saxon stocu, ‘long sleeve, Old Icelandic stúka. The Romance cognate, French étui (Italian astuccio), ‘case,’ has been derived rom a Teutonic *stûkjo. Teutonic stū̆kô (stū̆kjo) is usually connected with a pre-Teutonic root stū̆g; Old Low German stûkan, Dutch stuiken, ‘to pile up, push,’ and Lithuanian stùgti, ‘to look aloft.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Stecken

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Stecken. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Stecken, masculine, ‘stick, staff,’ from the equivalent Middle High German stëcke (stëche), Old High German stëccho (stëhho) masculine. Corresponding to Anglo-Saxon sticca, English stick; literally perhaps ‘pricker,’ like Stange, allied to English sting. —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Stein

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Stein. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Stein, masculine, ‘stone,’ from the equivalent Middle High German and Old High German stein, masculine; corresponding to Gothic stains, Old Icelandic steinn, Anglo-Saxon stân, English stone (to which English dialectic steen, ‘stone vessel,’ from Anglo-Saxon stœ̂ne, ‘pitcher’ is allied; compare Old High German steinna, ‘pitcher’), Dutch steen, Old Saxon stên. The common Teutonic staino- is related pre-historically to Old Slovenian stěna, ‘wall’ (stĕnĭnŭ, ‘rocky, stony’), as well as to Greek στία, στῖον, ‘pebble.’ —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Staude

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Staude. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Staude, feminine, ‘shrub, bush,’ from the equivalent Middle High German stûde, Old High German stûda, feminine, a specifically High German word, wanting in the other Teutonic dialects. Its genuine Teutonic origin is, however, undoubted. It seems, like stehen, to belong to a primitively cognate Aryan root stū̆, which appears in Greek στῦλος, ‘pillar,’ and στῦω, ‘to look fixedly,’ and so in stützen.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Steg

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Steg. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Steg, masculine, ‘path, narrow wooden bridge,’ from the equivalent Middle High German and Old High German stëc (genitive stëges), masculine; allied to steigen; also dialectically Stege, feminine, equivalent to Stiege, ‘stair.’ —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Steinmetze

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Steinmetze. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Steinmetze, see under Metze (1).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Steiß

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Steiß. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Steiß, masculine, ‘rump, buttocks’ (with Middle German ei instead of eu), from the equivalent Middle High German and Old High German stī̆uz (hence also the early Modern High German variant Steuß), masculine, corresponding to Dutch stuit. It is probably based on a Teutonic stī̆wot-, which is primitively allied to Latin stîva, ‘plough handle.’

# Among the Daughters/Part One

One day Cunegonde having taken a walk in the Castle's environs, in a little wood, which they called a park, espied Doctor Pangloss giving a lesson in experimental philosophy to her mother's chambermaid; a little brown wench, very handsome, and very docile. As Miss Cunegonde had a strong inclination for the sciences, she observed, without making any noise, the reiterated experiments that were being enacted before her eyes; she saw very clearly the sufficient reason of the Doctor, the effects and causes; and she returned greatly flurried, quite pensive, and full of desire to be similarly learned; imagining she might be a sufficient reason for young Candide, who also, might be the same to her.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/trennen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry trennen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ trennen, verb, ‘to separate, sever,’ from Middle High German and Old High German tręnnen (older *trannjan), weak verb, ‘to split, separate, cleave,’ literally ‘to partition off’; factitive of Middle High German trinnen, ‘to run away, separate’ (compare abtrünnig). This verbal stem is unknown to the other Teutonic languages, and hence its primitively Teutonic and pre-Teutonic form and meaning cannot be ascertained.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/trinken

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry trinken. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ trinken, verb, ‘to drink,’ from the equivalent Middle High German trinken, Old High German trinchan; a common Teutonic strong verb; compare Gothic drigkan, Anglo-Saxon drincan, English to drink, Dutch drinken, Old Saxon drinkan. From Old Teutonic are derived the Romance cognates, Italian trincare, French trinquer, ‘to touch glasses.’ The strong verbal root drink (Aryan dhreng) is not found in non-Teutonic; on the other hand, the Aryan root pô, ‘to drink’ (compare Sanscrit pâ, Greek πω-, Latin pô-tus, &c.), is wanting in Teutonic — Compare Trank, Trunk.
