You haven't posted a single example from medieval Hermetic or alchemical texts... Where is your "aqua, aqua, aqua" from?

[*]is very impressive than dont know the basic about hermetic tradition.
[*]i dont need to explain that, hermetic is about that
[*]obviously will never understood a book that is fully based on hemertic knowledge and i did provide several sources. is amazingly ignorant dont now this principle. And as Tesla said, if you understand 3, 6 and 9, you hold the key to the universe. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

BY example, Hermes Trismegistus literally means “three times master” or “thrice great.”
But they did not call him Hermes Megistus Megistus Megistus, they called him Trismegistus. -

Stop pretending that you know anything about it, because you obviously don't. -

Well, I will be the devil's advocate here and will say that it is true.
They didn't have words like "airplane", "adrenaline", "flamingo", "boomerang" or "manga".
But when they talked about things known to them, they used a comparable vocabulary to ours. -

This conversation is so ignorant than i will not reply
Language is a construct, every year in every region changes
English has more than 1 million words
Latin in 1400 is not even close anf if you limit to a soecific region is ecen smaller -

Yes, that makes sense. It should also be noted that sometimes, especially in medieval Latin, the author's mother tongue influenced the creation of texts, so that one sometimes encountered “poor” Latin. However, this does not mean that there was a fundamental lack of possibilities for correct expression.
Here is an example quote:
Quote:„Es laut gar vbel, vnd man heisst es Küchen Latein, so man Latein redet nach aussweisen der Teutschen Zungen.“[1]
English translation:
“It sounds terrible, and it's called kitchen Latin when you speak Latin in the style (or idiom) of the German language.”
[1] Aventinus: Quoted from K. F. W. Wander (Hrsg.): Deutsches Sprichwörter-Lexikon. Band 2. Leipzig 1870, Sp. 1660
