No. Book comes from the Old English for Beech, whose bark was used to inscribe runes. Free also has a Germanic root.
I think you are trying to make a link between the French fo book which is Livre, and liberty from the Latin.
The “original” goddess of liberty is Libertas, who like most “originals” has earlier sources.
That there might be a connection to books is not demonstrated or proven.
Do you have any evidence?
Yes, related to Freya. In Dutch, vrijen means making love. It used to, it’s not been in use for a few decades.
Liber does mean book as well as free in Latin, but declines differently. I know they’re not the same word technically (I had 7 years of Latin, not entirely ignorant) but, in the spirit of Liberty, I decided to take the freedom to unite them.
INdeed but there is a mistake in not recognising when two words with the same root actually spearate and depart in meaing from one another. Just because two things come from the same soil does not mean they are meaningfully connected.
Whilst others are simply homophonic. Look at the word “set” for example.
So you have zero evidence that these are not simply homophones? Is that correct?
You might ahve a right to your own opinions; you do not have a right to peddle your own facts.
You are entitled to your opinion as well.
You misunderstood me, as usual… it is tiring how slow people are… I said I deliberately used the two words as one, taking the liberty (dont you even get that pun?) –
and no, making use of correspondences is not falsity. It is called creation.
Even DNA works that way.
Also, since you didn’t know before I told you that Liber is the latin word for Book, I consider you edified by my efforts nonetheless!
Have some more respect. That goes for anyone. When youve been taught something, at least give a nod of acknowledgement to your teacher.
Tiring.
You are just so wrong, confused misguided and blatantly ignorant of some of the most simple fact of life.
I hope you keep this nonsense to yourself. I feel sorry for the people you live around if you share your twisted beliefs.
