Are you saying the dictionary's etymology is wrong?
"Answer" Is literally derived From proto Germanic andaswarō take a crack at what word that developed into. I'll give you a hint, we've talked about it.
From Middle English answere, andsware, from Old English andswaru (“answer”), from and- (“against”) + -swaru (“affirmation”), (from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ent- (“front, forehead”) and Old English swerian (“to swear”), from Proto-Indo-European *swer-), suggesting an original meaning of "a sworn statement rebutting a charge". The cognates suggest the existence of Proto-Germanic *andaswarō (“a reply to a question”). Cognate with Old Frisian ondser (“answer”), Old Saxon andswōr (“answer”), Danish and Swedish ansvar (“liability, responsibility, answer”), Icelandic andsvar (“answer, response”). Compare also Old English andwyrde (“answer”) (cognate to Dutch antwoord, German Antwort), Old English andcwiss (“reply”), German Schwur (“oath, vow”).
Wow, I surely didn't wake up today expecting some rando on the internet to copy n paste the dictionary at me.
Oh I love a flippant answer that has no argument, it proves you know you're wrong and at the very least cannot support your argument so instead you insult like a child.
How appropriate, you fight like a cow!
Oh I love it, it's your "mother language" and yet you can't form an argument as to why our how I'm wrong and yet I've proved with evidence how exactly you are wrong.
Lash out, it just proves your wrong.
So you've proven that I don't speak German now or what? I gotta call my mom to tell her! She'll never believe this! /s
Nope not at all, I've proved your wrong about the idiom and your ego won't let you admit that simply speaking a language doesn't make you an expert in it nor does it in fact make you an expert in the idioms thereof.
Sure, I'd love to speak to your mother, get her on here in sure she'll be super proud you're arguing against a dictionary.
You're a dictionary now? I shouldn't have eaten those mushrooms.
Nope, the evidence provided is a dictionary that you say you know better than.
When did I do that?
For like 15 idiotic comments, you even referenced my source ya dummy.
When exactly did I claim I knew anything better than the dictionary? When did I disagree with the dictionary?
Literally every time you referenced the dictionary, you even got offended that I quoted the dictionary.
But sure, if the dictionary is right, how exactly am I wrong.
