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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stechen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stechen, verb, ‘to prick, stab, engrave,’ from the equivalent Middle High German stëchen, Old High German stëhhan, strong verb. From this strong verbal root stek, which is preserved in Middle European Teutonic (Old Saxon stëkan, Dutch steken, Old Frisian steka); compare sticken, Stecken, and Stichel. By passing from the i class into the e class this root (compare bitten) originated in an older form stik, pre-Teutonic stig, which has a variant tig, ‘to be sharp,’ in the non-Teutonic languages. Compare Sanscrit tij, ‘to be sharp, sharpen’ (tigmá, ‘pointed, sharp’), Greek στίγμα, ‘prick, point,’ from στέζω, ‘to mark with a pointed instrument, prick,’ Latin instîgare, ‘to goad on, incite.’ Whether these are connected further with a prehistoric root stik, stink (see Stange), is uncertain. —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/steif

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry steif. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ steif, adjective, ‘stiff, rigid, pedantic, formal,’ from Middle High German stîf, ‘stiff, fixed, upright, brave, stately’; probably a Middle German and Low German word. Compare Dutch stijf, Anglo-Saxon stîf (English stiff), Old Icelandic stîfr, ‘fixed, stiff.’ The Teutonic root stîf, in these cognates, occurs in the non-Teutonic languages as stîp; Latin stîpes. ‘stake, stick,’ Lithuanian stiprùs, ‘strong, firm,’ stìpti, ‘to become stiff.’ Compare also Stift.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/stark

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stark. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stark, adjective, ‘strong,’ from Middle High German starc (and starch), Old High German starc (and starah), adjective, ‘strong, vigorous, big’; corresponding to Old Saxon stark, Dutch sterk, Anglo-Saxon stearc, English stark, Old Icelandic sterkr. To the same Teutonic root stark belong by a different gradation Gothic gastaúrknan, ‘to become parched, wither away,’ Old Icelandic storkna, ‘to curdle,’ Old High German storchanên, ‘to become fixed, hard’; hence perhaps ‘fixed’ is the primitive meaning of the root. Lithuanian strėgti, ‘to stiffen, become numb,’ and Modern Persian suturg (base *stṛga), ‘strong,’ are primitively allied. Derivative Modern High German Stärke, feminine, ‘starch’ (note the English word).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/starren

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry starren. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Modern High German starren, verb, ‘to look fixedly, stare,’ from the equivalent Middle High German starn, Old High German starên, which is more closely connected with Star than with starr.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/stattlich

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stattlich. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stattlich, adjective, ‘stately, magnificent, considerable,’ a Modern High German derivative of Middle High German stat, ‘good opportunity.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/stauen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stauen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stauen, verb, ‘to dam in, stow away, pack,’ from Middle High German and Old High German stouwen, ‘to put a stop to, arrest, restrain’ (properly identical with Middle High German and Old High German stouwen, ‘to abuse, rate, accuse’?). Allied to Modern High German staunen, ‘to be amazed’ (originally a Swiss ​word, adopted as a literary term in the last century), which is wanting in Middle High German and Old High German. For the early history of stauen and staunen the older periods give no further clue, yet compare root stū̆, ‘to look fixedly,’ under Staude.
# 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 |
​ Modern High German stecken, weak verb, ‘to stick, fix, put, place, conceal,’ from Middle High German and Old High German stecken, ‘to fasten by sticking, fix firmly,’ literally ‘to make something stick’; a recent factitive of stechen (properly *stakjan for *staikjan, from the root stik). From the intransit. meaning of Middle High German stecken, ‘to remain fast,’ is derived the equivalent Modern High German stecken, strong verb, ‘to stick, remain fast, be fixed.’ The Romance cognates, Italian stecco, ‘thorn,’ stecca, ‘staff,’ French etiquette, ‘ticket’ (on goods, &c.), are based on derivatives of the Teutonic root stik, stëk.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/stehlen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stehlen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stehlen, verb, ‘to steal,’ from the equivalent Middle High German stëln, Old High German stëlan; a common Teutonic strong verb. Compare Gothic stilan, Old Icelandic stela, Anglo-Saxon stëlan, English to steal (to which stealth is allied), Dutch stelen, Old Saxon stëlan, ‘to steal.’ The root is confined to Teutonic, and corresponds only partly to Greek στερίσκω, ‘to rob’; perhaps the Teutonic l instead of the Greek r is due to hehlen (on account of the frequent combination of hehlen and stehlen). À verb corresponding to the Greek κλέπτω, ‘to steal,’ is preserved in Gothic (compare Gothic hlifan, ‘to steal’).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/starr

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry starr. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ starr, adjective, ‘fixed, staring,’ Modern High German only; probably a Low German word. Compare the rare Middle High German starren, ‘to become fixed,’ allied to the Teutonic root ster, star, with which the cognates of Star and Stärke are connected. With these compare Sanscrit sthira, ‘firm, strong,’ Greek στερεός, ‘hard.’ —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/stehen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry stehen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ stehen, verb, ‘to stand, remain,’ from the equivalent Middle High German and Old High German stên, strong verb; besides the root stai, which may be deduced from this verb, Middle High German and Old High German stân indicates another root. The form of this root stai (stâ) was extended to stand (staþ), from which most of the dialects form the present stem; compare Gothic standan, Anglo-Saxon standan, English to stand (English to stay is derived from Romance; compare Old French estaier), Old High German stantan, Middle High German (rarely) standen. The present stem was, in the Teutonic group, formed from the root stand while the substantival derivatives were chiefly based on the Aryan root stā̆ (compare Stadt, Statt, stetig). This recurs (as in the case of kommen, gehen, sitzen) in all the Aryan languages in the same sense. Compare Sanscrit sthâ, Greek ἱ τάναι, Latin stâre, Old Slovenian stati, ‘to stand.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlohweiß

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlohweiß. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlohweiß, adjective, see Schloße.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlottern

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlottern. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlottern, verb, ‘to shake, hang loose, dangle,’ from the equivalent Middle High German slottern, intensive of Middle High German sloten, ‘to quiver.’ Compare Dutch slodderen, ‘to shake’; of obscure origin.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlucken

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlucken. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlucken, verb, ‘to gulp down, swallow,’ from Middle High German slucken, ‘to swallow, gulp down, sob’; Old High German *slucchôn may be inferred from sluccho, slûhho (hh as in schluchzen?), masculine ‘gormandiser, glutton.’ Allied to Middle High German slûchen, ‘to swallow, gulp down,’ and slûch, ‘gullet, throat; sot, glutton’ (compare Modern High German Schlauchmaul). The Teutonic root slū̆k, not allied to schlecken, originated in Aryan slū̆g, which has been identified in Greek as λυγ (for σλυγ); compare λυγγάνομαι, λύζω, ‘to have the hiccup, sob,’ λύγδην, ‘sobbingly,’ λύγξ (λυγγός), ‘violent sobbing, hiccup.’ In Old Irish the root appears with initial s as slug, ‘to devour.’ Akin also to Schlauch.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlürfen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlürfen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlürfen, verb, ‘to sip, lap, drink,’ Modern High German only; probably, however, its non-occurrence in earlier High German is only an accident (Middle High German *slürfen, Old High German *slurfen); according to the High German permutation Dutch slurpen, ‘to sip,’ is allied. The stem is not found elsewhere; its origin is obscure.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlingen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlingen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlingen, verb, ‘to wind, twine, twist, sling,’ from Middle High German slingen, Old High German slingan, ‘to wind, entwine, swing to and fro,’ Middle High German also ‘to creep,’ Old High German ‘to move’; compare Dutch slingeren, ‘to hurl, swing,’ Anglo-Saxon slingan, English to slung, Old Icelandic slyngva, ‘to throw’; Gothic *slingwan (or rather *sleihwan) is wanting. The primary idea of the root slingw, to which both schlenkern and Schlange are allied, was ‘a revolving, swinging motion.’ The Teutonic root slingw (*slinhw) originated in pre-Teutonic slenk, as is indicated by Lithuanian slínkti, ‘to creep’ (Old Slovenian sląkŭ, ‘crooked’?). —
schlingen (1.), verb, ‘to twine, wind.’ See the preceding article.
schlingen (2.), verb, ‘to swallow, engulf,’ a Middle German term introduced by Luther, for (Upper German) Middle High German slinden, Old High German slintan, ‘to devour’; in Middle German nd changes to ng, as, e.g., Thuringian linge, ‘Linde’ (linden), gebungen, gebunden (bound), schlung, Schlund (gullet). Compare Gothic fra-slindan, ‘to devour,’ Dutch slinden, ‘to devour’; further corresponding verbs are wanting in Old Teutonic. The Teutonic root slind, ‘to devour,’ seems to be cognate with the root slī̆d, ‘to slide.’ See Schlitten and also Schlund. The change from schlinden to schlingen is due to connecting the word with schlingen (1); compare hinunter würgen, ‘to swallow.’
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlitzen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlitzen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |

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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schluchzen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schluchzen, verb ‘to sob,’ from the equivalent late Middle High German sluckzen; properly a frequentative of schlucken, which in Middle High German also means ‘to sob.’ See seufzen (Old High German *sluhhazzen, *slucchazzen, are wanting). —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlüpfrig

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlüpfrig. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |

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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schloßweiß. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schloßweiß, or, by a curious corruption, schlohweiß, literally ‘white as hail’ (Middle High German wîzer dan ein slôȥ, ‘whiter than a hailstone,’ occurs once).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/schlängeln

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry schlängeln. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ schlängeln, verb, ‘to wind, twist,’ Modern High German only, seems a diminutive derivative of Schlange.
# An Autobiography/Preface

PREFACE.
It is a difficult thing to tell the story of a life, and yet more difficult when that life is one's own. At the best, the telling has a savour of vanity, and the only excuse for the proceeding is that the life, being an average one, reflects many others, and in troublous times like ours may give the experience of many rather than of one. And so the autobiographer does his work because he thinks that, at the cost of some unpleasantness to himself, he may throw light on some of the typical problems that are vexing the souls of his contemporaries, and perchance may stretch out a helping hand to some brother who is struggling in the darkness, and so bring him cheer when despair has him in its grip. Since all of us, men and women of this restless and eager generation—surrounded by forces we dimly see but cannot as yet understand, discontented with old ideas and half afraid of new, greedy for the material results of the knowledge brought us by Science but looking askance at her agnosticism as regards the soul, fearful of superstition but still more fearful of atheism, turning from the husks of outgrown creeds but filled with desperate hunger for spiritual ideals—since all of us have the same anxieties, the same griefs, the same yearning hopes, the same passionate desire for knowledge, it may well be that the story of one may help all, and that the tale of one should that went out alone into the darkness and on the other side found light, that struggled through the Storm and on the other side found Peace, may bring some ray of light and of peace into the darkness and the storm of other lives.

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

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Krone. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Krone, feminine, ‘crown,’ from the equivalent Middle High German krône, krôn; in Old High German corôna (with the foreign accent preserved), from Latin cŏrôna (the unaccented ŏ disappeared in Middle High German); compare Middle English corûne, croune, English crown; in Middle Dutch the double form crône, krûne, existed, Dutch kroon, kruin. Scandinavian krúna, feminine. In Anglo-Saxon the term cyne-helm, literally ‘king's helmet,’ was substituted for Latin corona of the Biblical texts (just as sceptrum was rendered by cynegerd, literally ‘king's staff’); in Old Saxon and Old High German hôƀidband, houbitbant, ‘crown.’ These words show that the Teutons had their own distinctive terms for the royal insignia. With the Latin name they also borrowed a new idea —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Kropzeug
