10 0 ReplyThe same term you use for city or town (directly from Hamburg) is now used to refer to a German-derived American meal...
Thus, burgerkrieg just sounds like burger war, and we all know how we now refer to Amerikkkaners as "burgerbrains"?

Burger means "burgh" which relates to the term "town"
Now, if we stretch the etymological roots and meaning from "town" to "city" to "citizen" (fr. "citoyen") to "civil", thus, we abstract it and simplify it to such terms...
And krieg just means "war"

"Krieg" means generally "war" yes , but literally translated it means "to get" , that aspect is missing in the english
And Bürger is not only from the town , but he himself is also "the Protected one , or the one that has Protection (lat.burga: Protection).
