English wiki points to the Slavic “news” of the etymology. Russian wiki does no such thing and is a more forceful approach. The nuance here is not just about “giving advice or counsel”. It’s instructing. Giving direction. Coming from the Slavonic Church side.
But the English just says “related to” the Slavic word for news. Which I take to mean that “soviet” and “věst” share a common ancestor, but not that one is derived from the other. Sorry if I’m being dense here....
This is the part that I beleive is incorrect. As a native speaker these words do not share commonality, is what I’m trying to say :) not even sure how the link was made. “Vest” comes from “vedat” which is to see. They diverge quite strongly between to instruct vs to spread news.
Ahhh... ok that does seem wrong! Thanks for helping me understand.
