The word "Selfcommune" is a combination of two root words: "self" and "commune".
The word "self" originates from the Old English word "sylf" which means "one's own person", "individual", or "personal identity". It can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "selbaz" meaning "self, same" and is also related to the Sanskrit word "sva-", meaning "one's own".
The word "commune" comes from the Latin word "commūnis" which means "common, shared". It has its roots in the Proto-Indo-European word "kom" which denotes "beside, near, with, among".
When these two words are combined, "selfcommune" suggests introspection or a kind of inner conversation or reflection with oneself. The etymology of this word brings together the idea of individual identity and personal reflection.
