Help[Opinions] Re: Protasia and Jesuslina (edited)
in reply to a message by Manipura
I was confused because of the S.
Protasia versus Prostasia.
stasis = stand.
no s = different meaning, because different root? or just a variant of the same word? Seems like it is different
if protasso = to put (an object) forward as a proposition / define / set first ...
and prostasios = to stand in front of (an object) / protect.
Like, there's nothing about an object being set first, that implies protection of any things that might come after.
But I don't know.
I did discover that the word "prostasia" appears to have been coopted as the name of an organization of people who want to legalize sexual exploitation of children by adults, and that's putting me off this name, regardless.
