French researcher Victor T. Junod was the first to describe symptoms of narcosis in 1834, noting the functions of the brain are activated, imagination is lively, thoughts have a peculiar charm and, in some persons, symptoms of intoxication are present.
The word green comes from the Middle English and Old English word grene, which, like the German word grÃ¼n, has the same root as the words grass and grow. It is from a Common Germanic *gronja-, which is also reflected in Old Norse grÃ¦nn, Old High German gruoni (but unattested in East Germanic), ultimately from a PIE root * ghre-to grow, and root-cognate with grass and to grow.
âGuten Rutsch!â: what does this German wish really mean? By Ute Limacher-Riebold on December 31, 2013 â¢ ( 17 Comments) When your German friends wish you a âGuten Rutsch!â, âEinen Guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr!â or say ârutsch guet Ã¼bereâ (Swissgerman), they donât want you to âslideâ or âslipâ (rutschen=to slide; (aus)rutschen= to slip). They simply wish you a smooth start into the New Year.
