Position:Home>General - Arts & Humanities > What does deponier mean?Question:Well, I looked up this word the way I believe a linguist would. I divided it and looked up the part that would have been the subject of the word, di-ponier. Here's what I found. (Hopefully this helps.) In German: This is a German word, or at least part of a word. I figured that the first two letters were sort of like the de/di/ in languages such as French, ie: de jardin, de leCroix, of or from. This same thing apparently is in other languages, such as the le or la in spanish. Hope this helps. Ponier is the actual word and the way it is used can give different meaning to it.
