QUE SIGNIFIE WERE EN ANGLAIS

Étaient

Were

Les termes archaïques étaient des termes archaïques pour les hommes adultes et étaient souvent utilisés pour l'allabrétisation avec la femme comme "étaient et épouse" dans les cultures germanophones. Dans le folklore et la fiction fantastique, ils étaient souvent utilisés comme un préfixe appliqué à un nom d'animal pour indiquer un type de lycanthropie et / ou de changeur de formes. La césure était obligatoire, mais elle est maintenant coulée, comme dans werecat et wererat. Cette utilisation peut être considérée comme une formation arrière du loup-garou, car il n'y a pas de lingerie équivalente. Le gothique a un mot traduisant kosmos, non dérivé de la même tige: faírhvus, utilisé par Ulfilas en alternance avec manasêþs. Le terme allemand germanique correspondant est le "monde" de Werold, littéralement "homme" + âge "âge". Le Faírhvus gothique est apparenté à la Vieille Haute Allemande fërah, Old English feorh, termes exprimant "la vie". Le mot a des connaissances dans diverses autres langues, par exemple, les mots vir et la peur sont le latin et le gaélique pour un homme humain.

Were and wer are archaic terms for adult male humans and were often used for alliteration with wife as "were and wife" in Germanic-speaking cultures. In folklore and fantasy fiction, were- is often used as a prefix applied to an animal name to indicate a type of lycanthropy and/or shapeshifter. Hyphenation used to be mandatory but is now commonly dropped, as in werecat and wererat. This usage can be seen as a back-formation from werewolf, as there is no equivalent wifewolf. Gothic has a word translating kosmos, not derived from the same stem: faírhvus, used by Ulfilas in alternation with manasêþs. The corresponding West Germanic term is werold "world", literally wer "man" + ald "age". Gothic faírhvus is cognate to Old High German fërah, Old English feorh, terms expressing "lifetime". The word has cognates in various other languages, for example, the words vir and fear are the Latin and Gaelic for a male human.
