Misterije kolokvijalnog jezika:
00:15
Venom,

otrov,
00:17
the poisonous fluid secreted by animals,
3
17530
2512
otrovna tečnost koju luče životinje
00:20
like snakes and scorpions,
4
20042
1975
poput zmija i škorpija,
00:22
typically transmitted by bite or sting.

i koja se obično prenosi ujedom ili ubodom.
00:27
As vile as the word is now,
6
27114
2108
Koliko god da je reč danas zla,
00:29
the history of venom begins
7
29222
1504
istorija otrova počinje
00:30
with the pleasant Indo-European root wen,
8
30726
3644
sa prijatnim indoevropskim korenom "wen",
00:34
which meant to desire or strive for.
9
34370
4014
što je značilo želeti ili težiti nečemu.
00:38
Perhaps, not surprisingly, wen also generated
10
38384
3374
Možda ne čudi to da je od "wen" nastalo
00:41
a number of amiable modern words,
11
41758
2641
i dosta milih modernih reči,
00:44
like win
12
44399
1256
poput "win" (pobediti),
00:45
or wish.
13
45655
2440
ili "wish" (želeti).
00:48
Wenes, a form of the original root,
14
48095
3115
"Wenes", jedan oblik prvobitnog korena,
00:51
was tailored to the mythology of the time,
15
51210
2918
prilagođen je mitologiji tog doba
00:54
and applied to the Roman goddess of love, Venus,
16
54128
3733
i korišćen za rimsku boginju ljubavi, Venus,
00:57
known to the Greeks as Aphrodite
17
57861
2969
koja je Grcima bila poznata kao Afrodita
01:00
and to the Egyptians as Hathor.
18
60830
3183
a Egipćanima kao Hator.
01:04
From this milieu of amore,
19
64013
2502
Iz ovog ljubavnog ambijenta
01:06
the word wenesom emerged,
20
66515
2252
nastala je reč "wenesom",
01:08
meaning love potion.
21
68767
2754
što znači "ljubavni napitak".
01:11
Over time, wenesom became venenum,
22
71521
4101
Vremenom je "wenesom" postalo "venenum",
01:15
a word that specifically described potions or medicines
23
75622
3419
reč koja je naročito opisivala napitke ili lekove
01:19
that evoked intense physical reactions from the patient.
24
79041
4396
koji su izazivali jake fizičke reakcije kod pacijenata.
01:23
The definition of venenum
25
83437
1924
Definicija reči "venenum"
01:25
eventually narrowed to refer solely
26
85361
1943
vremenom se suzila kako bi označavala
01:27
to poisonous concoctions,
27
87304
2626
isključivo otrovne smese,
01:29
a shift that puts us within striking distance
28
89930
3047
što je prelaz koji nas prilično približava
01:32
of the word under investigation.
29
92977
2839
reči koju istražujemo.
01:35
A bit of shortening
30
95816
1271
Malo skraćivanja
01:37
and a slight distinction in source
31
97087
1961
i blaga razlika u poreklu
01:39
brings us to venom,
32
99048
2072
dovodi nas do reči "venom",
01:41
a deadly fluid that comes from a snake
33
101120
3437
smrtonosne tečnosti koja potiče od zmija
01:44
rather than a pharmacist.
34

1966
a ne od apotekara.
