The year 2018 was to be dominated by a extension of the storage & publishing tools from Scribd
(jwr47) and Google (in English: The Hermetic Codex, JWR_4_7) to Academia (JoannesRichter
[with 35 document] and Joannes richter [with 53 documents])1. Academia is helpful in feeding me
with similar topics and papers.
The usage of 3 languages (English, Dutch, German) helps to document quotations in their source
code without too much translations. I know the usage of color marks may be unprofessional, but it
helps me to find keywords and I do not work with editors, who are telling me how to illustrate my
papers.
The response on Scribd and Google is poor, but I use these tools to search my own database for
topics. Only Academia gives me some encouraging response from readers. I do not really need the
response, because the topic is too isolated from the mainstream interest. I do not need the response
and feel free to choose my topics independently from any organization.
1 In using Academia I forgot an old registration with an old login and password, which allows me to login to 2 storage
areas. Academia seems to have joined these sections to one common storage platform with 87 (or 88 ?) documents.
The summary of linguistic & historical research

The antipodes “me” ↔ “we” and “mid” ↔ “wiþ”
We may claim that the prepositions (in Dutch:) “met”, (in English:) “mid”, (in German:) ”mit”
respectively (in Dutch:) “weder”, (in English:) “wiþ”, (in German:) “wider”) behave like dual
forms, which have been derived from the accusative personal pronoun “me” (singular), respectively
nominative “we” (plural) by adding a “þ” or “t”.
The cooperative couple “Adam and Eve” would formulate themselves as “mid” (“me two”) and the
adverse couple “Cain and Abel” would formulate themselves as “wiþ” (“we two”). Obviously the
dual forms for these personal pronouns were also to be used as prepositions “mid” (“cooperative”)
respectively “wiþ8” (“adverse”)9.
8 Unfortunately the English language did not really stick to the original pattern and misunderstood the principle by
mixing up both definitions “mid” and “wiþ”.
9 In English, Dutch and German the dual form is still alive
