ceigered:You such a freak/"Oberschecker"("Alles schecken/kapieren/verstehen"/ Mentor/ King of knowing everything/ People who to ask if someone is not clear about some issue by itselves) *grrr*.
Mishmashes have a funny etymological history. The English words "mix", "mash", "mishmash" (mash duplicated), and the German words "mischen", "mischmasch" (same thing as "mishmash"), and a few others, all come from the Proto-Germanic word "misk-"/"mask-" (two separate words).
Which is related to "-misc-" in "Immiscible" and "miscellaneous".
