Maybe you should do open your own Message Board if just your Informations are right? Or you should exile every Author who writes something different than you!

So the site you cite is correct as far as Hebrew and "crown" is concerned. I wasn't looking closely enough, just checking my biblical and my modern Hebrew dictionary ("Klil" seems to be a medieval term for "crown", not found in the Bible nor in modern Hebrew). I could not find any connection to "laurel", but to lillies. So you see: even people who know a language do make mistakes.
This board is for discussion. Whoever makes an assertion must tell his sources. The reliabilty of sources must be discussed. The site you quote does not seem to be very reliable in each case, as Lumia and I demonstrated. This does not mean that everything should be doubted. But you have to be careful. The combination of Hebrew and Hawaiian meanings should make you prick up your ears in any case.
Politeness is a virtue generally accepted on this board.

Exactly.
Plus: Lumia and Andy are both linguists and experts in etymology with degrees.

Excuse me for misspell your name, Shelly_lu.
I never said that only my informations are right, of course not. Lots of authors are reliable, even if they don't agree in some etymologies and/or facts: Faure, García Gallarín, Dauzat, Evans, Withycombe... And this board has great contributors who offer reliable and very valuable information: C.K. Evans, René, Andy, Caprice, Miss Claire, Profe Esteban...
Maybe some websites should check the information that they offer and write it accurately.
