guest host は親戚ですか?

PIE root *ghos-ti- ホスティー guest
guest host は親戚ですか?
原語のghos-ti-の綴を見るとゲストとも読めるしホストとも読めます。
したがって、同じ起源です。
原語のインド・ヨーロッパ語源は「見知らぬ人、客人、宿主」を意味し、「相互歓待の義務を負う相手」であり、「古代インド・ヨーロッパ社会にとって非常に重要な相互交換関係」を表す。
しかし、よそ者は客であると同時に潜在的な敵でもあるため、この単語は分かれ道を持っている。
ゲスト-フレンドシップは、儀式化された贈答を伴う二人の間の信頼の絆であり、一度確立された相互のもてなしと友情の義務は、永続的に継続する。
以下の単語はPIE root *ghos-ti- より生まれました。
The Proto-Indo-European (PIE) root *ghos-ti- relates to the concept of "stranger, guest, host," embodying the reciprocal duties of hospitality and the vital exchange relationships in ancient Indo-European societies. This root also acknowledges the dual nature of a stranger as both a guest and a potential enemy. The bond of guest-friendship, once established, entails a lasting obligation of mutual hospitality and friendship, often formalized through ritual gift exchange. From this root, several English words have evolved. Let's explore these words, add suitable emojis to represent them, and provide their Japanese translations:
