<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">It is a
Friday evenbign here, the week is over ... and WHAT a week it has been!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Now,
fortunately (for ME!), the trustees are all gone and the morrow's theoretical
day of rest can maybe for once actually be spent NOT working!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Tonight
though, my brain is too tired for serious etymology work, but it seems to me
that just maybe Germanic great/grosser/etc MIGHT be related to Slavic zrê-
'mature' (< IE something like g^hrei-). Germanic would have added a -t to
make the adjective; Slavic an -l (Russian зрелый /zrelyj/ 'mature,
ripe'). MOST things, when fully ripe and mature are BIGGER than when not.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">As for a
connection between 'great' 'and 'greet' ... well somewhere in the previous
posts i saw a "be (wese) great". So maybe the modern 'to greet'
is from an earlier imperative of this verb, and what our
ancestors were REALLY saying when they said "GREETINGS" was ...
"BE mature!" ... or simply "Grow up!" ;-) </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">... sorry,
don't let my weak weekend humour "grate" on your nerves!</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">> cause
I think, "meal" meaning "flour" is a word not known to most
people who are</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">> non-native
speakers of English.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">'cause the
model for the English they teach you is not Southern (US southern , NOT UK Southern).
There, although we DO have flour too (self-risin' fro the best biscuits you
ever done eat!), what day would be complete without something made with corn
meal (white, of course!)! (And don't forget mealie worms!)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">And, of
course, grits to start the day off right!</span></p>
