Ari: EL is spanish comes from Arabic EL-Al.meaning The ALL. As in God. ALif, LAm,Ha. or ALLAH.ELohim etc. EL-Dorado again denotes God. EL(god)do(of)Ra(SUn)DO(of).

The 'el-' in Eldorado is simply the definite article meaning "the." Nothing more, nothing less, despite what esoteric provenance you think it has. It comes ultimately from the Latin demonstrative pronoun 'ille,' the same etymon of the French articles. It's really as simple as that.

Ari: you are very correct

Mr: the guy said if you dont understand the history of religion then you will never understand etymology. The reason elevate means to lift up etc. is all religious. Lift up as in ressurect or accend.The lifting of the soul. The EL is god(soul).EL chooses you. El-ects you. El(god) is energy therefore El is Elect-ric.Get it.Electricity is the movement of god(energy)EL.EEEEEEEEEEEEISrael,Damiel. All have the same root. EL. God,soul. Soul or SOL> SOL means SUn.SOn sound.SOn of God.Gods Word.its deep

Jesus is not from Greek, it's from an Aramaic word that was transliterated into Greek (big difference). Phonetics bears no relation to Phoenecian (it's from the Greek word for speak/voice). And Latin is not FROM Greek! It's related to it (same as it's related to German, Welsh etc.), but it's not FROM it. Some people sopend their whole lives studying historical linguistics and you, after watchin Zeitgeist, think that you know better than them? Ridiculous. Get a dictionary. Learn Latin and Greek.

Mr: Jesus is not Hebrew name. There isnt even a "J" in the Hebrew Alphabet/ Jesus is a Greek name. The New Testatment was written mainly in Greek.Also EL is from Hebrew. But Hebrew is from Summerian Canaanite script.Phonecians etc. Thats why its called Phonetics.Oh & Latin comes from Greek.Most languages share roots that go back to mostly Egypt believe it or not.

OK, so if the etymology of elevate is as you claim, why does 'levare' mean "to lift" in Latin? There is no 'el' sequence of letters (because it is without the 'e/ex' prefix seen in "elevare"), so then how could the simple, unaffixed 'levare' mean to lift without the 'el' that you claim means god? Seriously, it's cool that you're skeptical, but you're just out of your depth here. Any respected linguist would laugh at your claim (but they probably don't know anything religion, right?).

Mr: Eldorado means Land Of Gold because El is the Canaanite high god who was a SUn god. Gold reps the Sun.AUrum(AU-Ra) comes from Egypt. AU is the sun gos Au-ser(osiris) & AU-Set(Isis).The periodic element for gold is Au.Eldorado means God Of Sun.

I know where you're coming from, because I used to assume that aura and Latin aurum must be connected. Then I learned that aura comes from Greek. It's ok to find out that your assumptions are wrong. You don't have to continue down this "maybe they're connected" path just because it seems more interesting. Etymology is a very invloved pursuit involving knowledge of many languages. It's not a field where complete novices should be doubting the scholars just because they have a half-baked hunch.
