my dim recall of the oed has proselytising coming from how old greek
sheepherders cuased to turn etc a bunch of sheep,
and teach coming from how an old german or friesian or such would show
somebody how to or why to do something. i also recal a pilgm's note from a Hand
of Cause who happenedto
Yes, the dictionary isn't of much help when it comes to understanding
