Dialogue: 0,0:16:27.17,0:16:31.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,he's also telling the reader, this is not the original version

Dialogue: 0,0:17:02.50,0:17:05.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it gets translated as false gods or demons

Dialogue: 0,0:17:09.46,0:17:14.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so why this enormous elasticity in the words meaning
Dialogue: 0,0:17:15.61,0:17:19.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well again, we have to go back to the roots of the word
Dialogue: 0,0:17:19.87,0:17:25.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and ask why is it used that way and why does it behave like a plural
