"The word king was originally *kuningaz or the man of the tribe. Since then its slowly transformed as Germanic speech has broken up into dialects: English king Frisian kening Dutch koning German Knig Swedish kung. BUT fascinatingly the Finns have preserved it almost perfectly ever since they borrowed it some two thousand years ago. Every time Finns say kuningas theyre echoing Germanic speech from an age long lost in shadow"

"Before we confused it with the noun gold we used to say gilden instead of golden. To me gilden has a beautiful sound suggesting the way gold sparkles and gleams. In past eras of English a golden age was a gilden world a golden boy was a gilden knight a gold coin was a gilden mint a gold-colored pen was a gildenhue feather and a blonde girl was a gildenfax maiden that is a girl with golden hair"
