The [C]A[S]E of the REVERSIBLE [S]A[CK], Part I



In the new science of Edenics, Sound is Sense, and Music is Meaning.  Non-coincidentally  the
 KS or SK sound means an enCASEment.  Here's a large entry from our 1500-page E-Word: The Digital Dictionary of the Human Language. (edenics.dot.org)


(EN)CASE    Ka$aH      Kahf-Samekh-Hey
CUSS-ah ________כסה________[K-S-(H)]
ROOTS: The dictionaries enclose us in the Latin capsa (box) and IE “root” kap (to take, grasp, hold) as the source of CASE, ENCASE, CASEMENT, CAISSON and CASKET.
The kap above is from words like כף  KaPH (palm of the hand - see "CUFF"),

Hebrew terms of encasement include כסה Ka$aH (to cover, conceal, encase - Leviticus 13:13),  החסין  HeeK[H]$eeYN (to store up), חסוי  K[H]ee$OOY (shelter) and  כיס  KeeY$ (pocket, SLIPCASE, purse - Proverbs 1:14).  An  (encased container or) drinking vessel is aכוס   KOA$ (cup – Genesis 40:11). See below. כסוי Ka$OOY is a covering of skins (Numbers 4:6).
Reversing to fricative-guttural also means covering, as the cherubs cover the ark with their wings, a Samekh-Khaf verb, in Exodus 37:9.  הסך Ha$aiKH is to cover in Exodus 40:21.
A reverse CASE works with Sin-Koof too – see שק SahQ (sack-- Genesis 42:25) at  “SACK.”  This reversal reveals the Edenic CASE more like a casa (house in Spanish) --  the  סכה  SooKaH (hut, tabernacle…. see "SHACK).
סך $oaKH means a (concealing) thicket. סכך  $aKHAKH is to screen or cover.  It was spelled with a  ש Shin in Exodus 33.22.  For guttural-fricative clothes (outer coverings), see “GUISE.”

BRANCHES:   “House” in Georgian is სახლი sakhli.   The  plaited or interlaced  סכך  $aKHAKH  on top of a סכה SooKaH (shack for Sukkot) is like a  סך $oaKH, thicket, or like a Swedish forest: skog.
Sounding  like SACK or SOCK (a sack covering our feet), we reverse to saku for the Indonesian pocket - see KeeY$ (pocket) above.
The SHOE is from a root meaning “covering” for the foot, writes Barnhart, but “there is no known Indo-European source.”  The German shoe, Schue, sounds closer to the reversed Het-Samekh family:   חסה   [K]Ha$ayH (shelter, protection – Isaiah 30:2),   חסם  [K]Ha$ahM, to muzzle – Deuteronomy 25:4), and חסוי [K]Hee$OOY (shelter – related above to כסה Ka$aH, to cover, encase. )

An Old High German clothing/cover-up is hose (trousers), as in LEDERHOSEN.  More HOSIERY at “HOUSE.”
 קשקשת  QaS(H)QeS(H)eT is the protective scales covering fish or men (in armor). CASCARA, CASING, CASK, CASQUE, CASSETTE, CASSOCK, CASTANETS (and perhaps CASTLE) are all covered here.
 SHUCK, reversing our guttural-fricative “covering” theme, is the shell of oysters and clams, also the covering of various fruits, nuts and seeds. In Nebraska one SHUCKS corn, removing its husk.  The AHD admits to “origin unknown.”
 See "HOUSE" and "MAGAZINE."

CHEST (the box) and CHEST (the breast) are both considered cognates of CIST and CISTERN at IE “root” kista (basket).  The torso’s CHEST holds the heart. The anatomical CHEST has Hebrew etymons to consider, such as חצן K[H]aTSaN (thus offering  the KH-ST sound,  meaning bosom, chest - related to a word in Nehemiah 5:13 and  חשן K[H]oaSHeN (breastplate). Chozo, Japanese for storage, could be from the same כסה   Ka$aH, and/or the related AK[H]ahZ (to hold, possess – see “HAS”).
Kasa, the wooden Swedish drinking vessel, is from Saami (Lapp) guksi,     from Edenic KOA$ (cup – see above).  Sanskrit sku (to cover, a reverse of our SK) is cited at the etymology of SCENE.
Exodus 34:9 has the Koof-Shin-Hey word for stiff or hard which even fits edible encasements, like gourds – see “SQUASH” and “ZUCCHINI.”  A lawyer might carry the notes to a hard (difficult) law CASE in his BRIEFCASE.  Difficult hard is different from hard, protective containers, but KaSHeH shares music and meaning with the other Edenic guttural-fricatives above.

כיס    Keey$ (pocket) appears in the pocket words of Polish (kieszen) and reversed in Dutch (zak) and Indonesian (saku). Kassi is a Finnish bag. A proper KS or a reversed שק SahQ (sack). Reverse KeeY$ (with a typical drop of the guttural) to get the Japanese sheath or scabbard, saya.
There is no K-S cup word in English to match/ KOA$ (cup – Genesis 40:11),  but Estonian kauss  and Hungarian csecze mean cup.  KS and SK hard coverings, small CHESTNUTS and SHELLS to big CASTLES are related, but if hardness dominates they belong with an קשה  QaSHeH (hard) entry like “CASEFY.”

“CUP” words are found in entries like “BEAKER,”  “CUP,” DEMITASSE” and “GOBLET.” But those vessels from כוס   KOA$ (cup) belong here:    Hungarian, with  csésze (cup),  has a form of the most common Edenic cup word: כוס KOA$ (Genesis 40:11). Latvian has kauss (cup, goblet, ladle); Russian has a cup: чашка chashka. Turkish kâse is a cup, bowl or basin. The goblet-like “silver bowl” of Numbers 7:13 in the Polish Gdańsk Bible is czasza.

THE CASE OF THE REVERSIBLE SACK

Global words for vessels or structures of concealment are guttural-fricative (throat-whistling) or fricative-guttural (whistling-throat) sounds.
