<p><font face="Arial" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial;">>The prefix <strong><b><font face="Arial"><span style="font-family: Arial;">'ab-'</span></font></b></strong> here obviously
denotes the direction 'down from (the pulpit)'.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial;">>You get <i><span style="font-style: italic;">ankündigen</span></i>,
which means 'to announce', originally apparently someone's arrival.
Ecclesiastic <i><span style="font-style: italic;">>abkündigen</span></i> may
well be a case of retention of an otherwise discontinued word, the opposite:
'to >announce someone's departure'. </span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial;">Actually, I think it is called "abkündigen"
because it is done pretty much at the end of the service: something like,
"before we all leave now and meet again in a week, there are a few things
that I would like to announce...".</span></font></p>
