Words, language, etymology all are taken for granted and grossly (1520s, “plainly, obviously,” from gross (adj.) + -ly (2). Meaning “coarsely, shamefully” is from 1540s; that of “excessively” is from 1610s.) misunderstood. (http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?allowed_in_frame=0&search=grossly )
The majority of people don’t pay any attention to what they say, the thought of our voice and our words having any actual power is not even considered. Some may ask what does it matter? That’s a question we all should take into serious consideration because that question is at the root of what is our collective problem. Yes, I said it… We popluation of earth have a problem and it is escalating by the day to our own detreiment.
I would venture to say every living soul has been miseducated (mis- (1)
prefix meaning “bad, wrong,” from Old English mis-, from Proto-Germanic *missa- “divergent, astray” (source also of Old Frisian and Old Saxon mis-, Middle Dutch misse-, Old High German missa-, German miß-, Old Norse mis-, Gothic missa-), perhaps literally “in a changed manner,” and with a root sense of “difference, change” (compare Gothic misso “mutually”), and thus from PIE *mit-to-, from root *mei- (1) “to change” (see mutable); see Watkins.
Others [Barnhart] see in Proto-Germanic *missa- the stem of an ancient past participle, related to Old English missan “fail to hit” (see miss (v.)), which is from the same PIE root.
Productive as word-forming element in Old English (as in mislæran “to give bad advice, teach amiss”). In 14c.-16c. in a few verbs its sense began to be felt as “unfavorably” and was used as an intensive prefix with verbs already expressing negative feeling (as in misdoubt). Practically a separate word in Old and early Middle English (and often written as such). Old English also had an adjective (mislic “diverse, unlike, various”) and an adverb (mislice “in various directions, wrongly, astray”) derived from it, corresponding to German misslich (adj.).(http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=mis-&allowed_in_frame=0)
I am adding the link to Online Etymology Dictionary as a reference for those who care to overstand the origins of words as we know them, what we don’t understand is that these words do not mean what we were taught or think.
Language/words are used to control us, to make us do things we would not naturally consider doing. Language/words are a program used to manipulate our thinking and thereby control the population as a whole.
Here are a few videos that I hope will lend to clarifying my point. Let me know what you think as well…We all have so much to unlearn.
There is so much we do not overstand and to shut down any information without researching it for yourself is foolish. My blog is titled MATruth~Awake because I am waking up… I hop e you will do the same and wake up!!!
