Nữ Oa

[nɨ˦ˀ˥ ʔwaː˧˧]

[nɨ˧˨ ʔwaː˧˧]

[nɨ˨˩˦ (ʔ)waː˧˧]

Sino-Vietnamese word from 女媧, from Literary Chinese 女媧 (Nǚwā).

Coordinate term: Phục Hi

Nên kể thêm bà Nữ Oa, có công luyện đá ngũ sắc để vá trời khi trời sụp đổ vì những cây cột chống trời gãy.

(Can we date this quote?), Nguyễn Hiến Lê, sử Trung Quốc [a history of China], Nhà xuất bản Văn nghệ:

It is worth mentioning Nüwa, who synthesized five-colored rocks that she used to patch the heavens when they collapsed because their support pillars broke.

“Ồ!” Tô Di không hề vì lời nói quái quỷ của cô ta mà buông tha. “Như Lai, Quan Thế Âm, Chúa Jesus hay Đấng cứu thế? Rốt cuộc cô là vị thần nào?”
Công chúa im lặng trong giây lát rồi nói: “Đại khái ta cũng giống như Nữ Oa của các người vậy!”
Nữ Oa? Nữ Oa vá trời? Nữ Oa tạo người?

2015 December 25, “Chương 33: Nỗi đau xót của Nguyệt Mặc [Chapter 33: Yue Mo’s Pain]”, in Mèo Hoang [Stray Cat]:

“Oh!” Su Yi wasn’t about to let her get away with her crazy talk, “The Buddha? Avalokiteshvara? Jesus Christ? The Messiah? What kind of god are you exactly?”
The princess paused for a moment, then said, “I’m kind of like your goddess Nüwa!”
Nüwa? The Nüwa who patched the heavens? The Nüwa who molded humanity?

German: Otakar, Ottokar

→ Czech: Otakar

From Proto-Germanic *Audawakraz. Or, if Latin Odoacer is not from that same source, this may also be a loan from Latin or from whatever source Odoacer originates (or at least influenced by it). The attested forms of this word are not entirely what would be expected from an Old High German reflex of *Audawakraz; one would rather expect something like *Otwacchar or *Ōtwahhar. However, Old High German spelling varied greatly and there are many irregularities found in the spellings of given names, so the absence of e.g. the -w- is not strong evidence that this is not simply a reflex of *Audawakraz (compare *Auziwandilaz and Old High German Orentil, which similarly lacks the -w- of its etymon.)

Auðhumbla

Generally accepted to derive from auðr (“riches”) + *humala (“hornless”).
The compound presents some level of semantic ambiguity. A parallel occurs in Scottish English humble-cow (“hornless cow”), and Northern Europeans have bred hornless cows since prehistoric times. As highlighted above, auð- may mean "rich"; and in turn, "rich hornless cow" remains generally accepted among scholars as a gloss of the Old Icelandic animal name. However, auðr can also mean "fate" and "desolate; desert", and so Auðhum(b)la may also have been understood as the "destroyer of the desert". This semantic ambiguity may have been intentional.


Logi

Learned borrowing from Old Norse Logi (“jötunn of fire”),

مینو

→ Urdu: مینو (mīnū)

From Middle Persian 𐫖𐫏𐫗𐫇𐫃 (mynwg /mēnōg/, “the spiritual world, the intangible world”), borrowed from Avestan 𐬨𐬀𐬌𐬥𐬌𐬌𐬎 (maⁱniiu, “spirit”). Doublet of مینا (minâ), from the Middle Persian’s Arabic descendant.
In Zoroastrianism
In Zoroastrianism, mēnōg is the antonym of gētīg (“the physical world, the tangible world”), modern گیتی (giti, “world”). The spiritual realm of mēnōg has existed eternally, but the good god Ohrmazd created the physical world of gētīg, where humans currently live, as an arena to permanently defeat the evil god Ahriman. The opposition between these two terms did not survive into Islam, although see early quotations such as the one given below.
The Arabic loan suggests that already in Middle Persian, the word could mean "emerald" or "glass" as intangible and ethereal substances, although this is not directly attested.

Essentially equivalent to diēs + pater; adds the title “Father” to Old Latin Diovis (“Jove”) whence the oblique cases of later forms of Diēspiter are derived by analogous formation (cf. Iuppiter, Iovis). Cognate of Umbrian 𐌉𐌖𐌐𐌀𐌕𐌄𐌓 (iupater); Sanskrit द्यौष्पितृ (Dyáuṣpitṛ́). Related by prime root to Diāna, dīvus, deus, and Ancient Greek Ζεύς (Zeús)—the Greek god to whom Roman Diēspiter is later equated—compare the equivalent vocative phrase in Doric Greek Δεῦ πάτερ (Deû páter), Attic Greek Ζεῦ πάτερ (Zeû páter, “O father Zeus”).

cog

Diéspiter te dique, Ergasile, perdant et ventrem tuom, parasítosque omnis, et qui posthac cenam parasitis dabit. cladés calamitasque, intemperies módo in nostram advenit domum. quasi lúpus esuriens ille metui ne in me faceret impetum.

c. 205 BCE, Titus Maccius Plautus, Captivi, act IV, scene IV, lines 1–4:

May Jupiter and the Deities confound you, Ergasilus, and your stomach, and all Parasites, and every one who henceforth shall give a dinner to Parasites. Destruction and devastation and ruin have just now entered our house. I was afraid that he would be making an attack on me, as though he had been an hungry wolf.

In antiquis precationibus nomina hæc deorum inesse animadvertimus: Diovis et Vediovis; est autem etiam ædes Vediovis Romæ inter Arcem et Capitolium. Eorum nominum rationem esse hanc comperi: Iovem Latini veteres a iuvando appellavere, eundemque alio vocabulo iuncto patrem dixerunt. Nam quod est, elisis aut inmutatis quibusdam litteris, Iupiter, id plenum atque integrum est Iovispater. Sic et Neptunuspater coniuncte dictus est et Saturnuspater et Ianuspater et Marspater—hoc enim est Marspiter—itemque Iovis Diespiter appellatus, id est diei et lucis pater. Idcircoque simili nomine Iovis Diovis dictus est et Lucetius, quod nos die et luce quasi vita ipsa afficeret et iuvaret. Lucetium autem Iovem Cn. Nævius in libris Belli Pœnici appellat.

c. 150 CE, Aulus Gellius, Noctes Atticæ, Book V, Chapter XII, lines 1–7:

In ancient prayers we have observed the names of these gods: Diovis and Vediovis; furthermore, there is a temple of Vediovis at Rome, between the Citadel and Capitolium. The explanation of these names I have ascertained: the ancient Latins called Iovis from iuvare, and called the same god “father,” thus adding another word. For Iovispater is the full complete form, which becomes Iupiter by syncope or change of some letters. So also Neptunuspater is used as a compound, and Saturnuspater and Ianuspater and Marspater—for this is Marspiter—and Jove also was called Diespiter, that is, the father of day and of light. And thus by a name of similar origin Jove is called Diovis and also Lucetius, because he blesses and helps us by means of the day and the light, equal to life itself. And Lucetius is applied to Jove by Gn. Nævius in his poem on the Punic War.

The first element may be stoor, stour (“large, stout”) (cognate to Old Norse stórr), or it may be from Old Norse Storðar-gandr (literally “world-monster”), an alternative name for Jörmungandr, from poetic use of storð to mean "earth", whence storðar men, "earth's necklace", i.e. "sea" (storð more often meant "wood" and storðar-gandr more often meant "wood's bane" i.e. "fire"). The second element is worm (“sea-dragon”).

But with regard to the Stoor Worms (which I have oftener heard called Sea Worms by the Norwegians), those who totally discredited the existence of the Kraakens told told me, they believed them really to exist: […]

1771, Philosophical Transactions, Giving Some Accompt of the Present Undertakings, Studies, and Labours of the Ingenious in Many Considerable Parts of the World, page 41:

Madness, like a Stoor Worm, moved continuously under their feet, making every step they took full of terror. Phelim peered at each face, but could see no one who resembled his dimly remembered father. Besides, it was difficult: […]

2000, Geraldine McCaughrean, The Stones are Hatching, Oxford University Press, USA, →ISBN, page 181:

The Muckle Mester Stoor Worm was the father of all the terrible stoor worms that lived in the sea - huge sea monsters that destroyed ships and breathed poison over the land.

2003, Donald Omand, The Orkney Book, Birlinn Publishers:

Now, I don't suppose that you are familiar with the internal plumbing of a stoor worm, so I had better explain. There was a large tunnel that ran right through the stoor worm, but here and there were smaller tunnels running off the big one […]

der

Ἀφροδίτη Πάνδημος

[page 64] The Love, therefore, which attends upon Venus Pandemos is, in truth, common to the vulgar, and presides over transient and fortuitous connexions, and is worshipped by the least excellent of mankind. The votaries of this deity seek the body rather than the soul, and the ignorant rather than the wise, disdaining all that is honourable and lovely, and considering how they shall best satisfy their sensual necessities. […] [page 67] That Pandemic lover who loves rather the body than the soul is worthless, nor can be constant and consistent, since he has placed his affections on that which has no stability.

The same distinction between an Uranian and a Pandemic Venus runs, as all those who have any acquaintance with the sculptures of the Greeks know, through their whole art. […] The latter [the Capitoline Venus] is the true Pandemic Venus, the perfect type of voluptuousness, soulless, animal beauty,— […]

The meeting of Venus with Phoebe distinguishes her roles: the business of Venus in her pandemic form is to ensure the immortality of the kinds. Her Garden has the voluptuousness necessary to ensure this, and this is 'the first seminarie / Of all things that are borne to live and die / According to their kindes.' [Quoting from Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene.]

For the complicated history of the Uranian and Pandemic Aphrodite of whom the Venus genetrix, the creative and vivifying force of nature, and Venus, the goddess of erotic passion, are Roman versions, see "Aphrodite" and "Venus" in Harper's Dictionary of Classical Literature and Antiquities, […].
