They conflate English ''astronomy'' and ''astrology'' in a way most outsiders find very confusing. To them, the correct viewpoint from which to regard the heavens is precisely that, as the ''heavens'' {{C|המל}} '''himěl'''. Just as ''planets'' comes from a Greek root meaning "to wander (around the sky)" and originally included lots of things which are not "rocky bodies in Outer Space", so too {{C|מזל}} '''mazěl''' are sky-objects which move, including the sun, the moon, Mars, Jupiter, etc. Because the constellations/zodiac signs also traverse with the season, they too are considered מזל, even though the stars that make them up are not. The Weddish split point-of-view affects most objects visible with the naked eye. The ''sun'' {{C|שמש}} '''łeměł''' is not a hot ball of fusing gas, it's more like an angel on fire, driving across a dome. The scientific idea of ''Sol'', is a מזל. The amazing reality is that pagan connotations might be "true", but not the most important aspect of something. | ||
A {{C2|סרה|סֵרֶה}} '''serěh''' is a ''star'', but mainly just the shape: the angels which co-rule over the night are {{C|כוכב|כֹּוכָב}} '''ḳowkov'''. The ''moon'' is {{C|ירח}}, while a moon (like Io or Phoebe) is {{C|mawn}}. Nothing like ''universe'' exists natively, though {{C|עולם}} is something like "a space-time epoch", which is probably closer to ''world''. However, English ''world'' usually means something involving its inhabitance, which is what {{C2|תבל|תֱּבֵל}} '''ṭǝvel''' means. | A {{C2|סרה|סֵרֶה}} '''serěh''' is a ''star'', but mainly just the shape: the angels which co-rule over the night are {{C|כוכב|כֹּוכָב}} '''ḳowkov'''.

According to Rosenfelder, Berlin and Kay say that color words emerge in a certain priority scheme, roughly related to the anatomy of human vision. ''Black'' is {{C2|חורת|חְוַרְת}} '''cwarþ''' (cognate to English ''swarthy''). ''White'' is {{C2|והית|וְהִית}} '''whiyþ''', almost the same. ''Red'' – the first color to emerge – is {{C2|רהוד|רְהֹוד}}. Next, languages have words for ''blue'' - {{C2|בלו|בְּלֵו}} '''bleu''', ''yellow'' - {{C2|גל|גֵל}} '''jel'''; and ''green'' - {{C2|גרוין|גְּרוין}}. Then comes ''brown''- {{C2|ברון|בְּרוּן}} '''brun'''. Finally, four colors tend to come late in a language: ''grey'' -- {{C2|גרי|גְּרֵי}} '''grey''', ''orange'' {{C2|אורג|אֹורֵנְג}} '''owrenj''', ''pink'' {{C2| | According to Rosenfelder, Berlin and Kay say that color words emerge in a certain priority scheme, roughly related to the anatomy of human vision.
