→? English: handy

Some sources claim the existence of an early English preform. Perhaps from English handie-talkie, apparently used as a Motorola product name based on walkie-talkie. Or perhaps derived from English handheld transceiver, coined by CB radio users, later informally applied to the first mobile phones, and soon found in product names.
Others assert the use for a phone is exclusively German, possibly as a short form of Handfunktelefon, as which it was marketed by firms like Bosch and Hagenuk. Thus equivalent to an anglicisation of Hand (“hand”) + -i (diminutive suffix).

Alle paar Minuten hängt er am Handy und macht Termine klar.

1994 May 11, Ralf Schlüter, “Stimmungen frei Hand”, in Berliner Zeitung:

Every few minutes he's on his cell phone arranging appointments.

Bluetooth ist eine drahtlose Kommunikationstechnologie. Der Ursprung dieser Technologie liegt im Jahre 1994, als die Firma Ericsson eine Alternative zu Kabeln für die Verbindung ihrer Handys zum Zubehör wie Headsets suchte.

2008, Ulrich Breymann, Heiko Mosemann, Java me, Hanser Verlag, →ISBN, page 283:

Bluetooth is a wireless communication technology. This technology originated in 1994, when Ericsson was looking for an alternative to cables for connecting their cell phones to accessories like headsets.

Der Kunde hält sein Handy zum Bezahlen einfach an ein Lesegerät und der Betrag wird von seinem Konto abgebucht.

2009, Ernst Stahl, E-Commerce-Leitfaden, ibi research, →ISBN, page 123:

To pay, the customer just holds his cell phone up to a reader and the amount is deducted from his account.

Hunsrik: taach

Akademie-Verlag
Berlin
Wolfgang Pfeifer (etymologist)

Inherited from Middle High German tac, tag, from Old High German tag, tac (attested since the 8th century); from Proto-West Germanic *dag, from Proto-Germanic *dagaz, possibly from Proto-Indo-European *dʰegʷʰ- (“to burn, to be illuminated”).
Germanic cognates include Old Saxon dag (whence German Low German Dag), Old Dutch dag (whence Dutch dag, Afrikaans dag), Old English dæġ (whence Modern English day), West Frisian dei, Old Norse dagr (whence Icelandic dagur, Faroese dagur, Norwegian Bokmål dag, Norwegian Nynorsk dag, Swedish dag, Danish dag), Yiddish טאָג (tog) and Gothic 𐌳𐌰𐌲𐍃 (dags).
Non-Germanic cognates include Albanian djeg (“to burn”), Latin foveō (“to warm, nurture”), favilla (“cinders, ashes”), Ancient Greek τέφρα (téphra), Lithuanian dãgas (“hot season”), Russian жечь (žečʹ, “to burn”), Sanskrit दहति (dahati, “to burn”).
Although they are similar in appearance and meaning, German Tag and Proto-Germanic *dagaz are not related to Latin diēs as older folk etymology suggested; instead, the Latin word is derived from Proto-Indo-European *dyew- (“to shine”). See the Latvian diena (“day”) and Sanskrit दिन (diná, “day”) for more.
In earlier legal documents since Middle High German, Tag was frequently used in the meaning of “a fixed day for meeting, debate, or appointment,” which was associated with words like Reichstag, Landtag, later Ratstag, and tagen (“to hold a meeting”), etc.
