Correct: "Rundfunk", and its abbreviation "Funk", means Radio (not the object, but the institution) A "Funker" is a radio operator. "Funken" as a verb means to radio, to transmit, and as a subject "Der Funken" it means "the spark" ---which is probably were the above terms originated in the German language, from the spark of the telegraph clicker... ...which doesn't really help us one bit in the above quest :D |
