A burning stone, in Low German dialect a Börnstein (Amber)
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
Deutsch: Brennender Bernstein von der polnischen Ostseeküste (gekauft um 2016 in Kahlberg, Krynicka Morska). Das kleine Stück wurde vor dem Brennen gewogen (0,1 Gramm) und vermessen (9 mm mal 5 mm). Nach dem Anzünden mit dem Feuerzeug fing der Stein sofort an, von alleine weiterzubrennen. Nach kurzer Zeit war die Flamme bereits deutlich höher als auf dem Bild hier und stark rußend. Oben links sieht man geschmolzenen Stein. Nach einiger Zeit sammelte sich unten am Stein ein tiefschwarzer Tropfen verbrannten Steins an. Bernstein ist wörtlich Börnstein, als börnender oder brennender Stein. Das Bild entstand in der Mathe-AC Lernwerkstatt in Aachen. Bildquelle: www.rhetos.de/html/lex/boernstein.htm
English: Bernstein is high German for amber. In low German the name ist Börnstein. Börn ist pronounced like English burn. Börnstein or Bernstein literally means a burning stone. And indeed: putting a small flame from a cigarette lighter to the stone will immediately ignite it. It then continues to burn with a vivid flame and a nice odour for quite some time. |
