Full Form

I am strongest when you see me as round, but I am often viewed in other forms. I lift and drop the sea with my tremendous strength, and a man with a name like 'powerful bicep' was the first to tread on me.

What am I?

  2. lloer, maan, lune, mond, luna, or in English: Moon!

    I'm rather pleased as I got this one on the first line ;)

    Can anyone guess what languages all those are in?

  3. I'm so glad to see this blog back up and running! Hope you had a good holiday, Mike.

    Yup, the moon. Bookish, I know the second word in that list is Afrikaans, but maybe also Dutch?

  6. I am the only one who came up with a different answer haha, I guessed the wind, I mean the wind makes waves "lifts and drops the sea" and it is strongest when round, such as a hurricane, I was confused by that bicept guy but now I get it, Armstrong, hahaha, never would have thought of that. I was somehow thinking that name referred to whatever that guys name was who was a fictional character who rode tornados.

  8. lloer(Welsh), maan(Dutch, or as Charli pointed out, Afrikaans. Aren't the two related?), lune (French), mond (German [Good job, Biller25!]), and luna (Spanish or Latin).

    Anonymous, the moon's gravity helps create the tides of the ocean, thus lifting and dropping the sea. You can read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon#Orbit_and_relationship_to_Earth
