• Hunger is good!!!

    Evolution of the word “hunger”— also, why do we use the German word

    The evolution of the word “hunger” in English and its connection to German languages reflects a shared linguistic heritage within the Germanic family of languages, which includes both English and German. Here’s a closer look:

    1. Origin and Development:
    • The English word “hunger” comes from Old English “hunger,” which meant hunger or famine. This is not much different from its counterparts in other Germanic languages.
    • For example, in German, the word is “Hunger”. Both the English and German words stem from the same Proto-Germanic root *hungruz, which also meant hunger.
    1. Why English Uses the German Word:
    • English and German are both part of the West Germanic language group, which evolved from Proto-Germanic. Over time, these languages developed along different paths but retained many similarities due to their common origin.
    • The reason English uses “hunger” and it closely resembles the German “Hunger” is because both languages inherited and retained similar forms of the word from their shared Proto-Germanic ancestor. There wasn’t a need for English to borrow this term from Modern German because it was already present in its linguistic ancestry.
    • The vocabulary of English includes many words of Germanic origin because the Anglo-Saxons, who spoke a variety of West Germanic, were the dominant cultural and linguistic influence in England after the 5th century.

    This shared linguistic heritage means that many basic words related to everyday life (like hunger, sleep, drink, and more) are quite similar in English and German, reflecting their common roots.

  • it seems that naturally we don’t like cloudy or overcast days when there is no sun. But my thought is maybe, the issue here is that typically in a lot of northern America or the world, when it is overcast, it is also cold. But funny enough in places like Southeast Asia, even though it is overcast, it is still warm and hot.

    So maybe the ideal physiology goal is to just go somewhere, live somewhere which is hot and warm?
