what does Sin Cera mean?

Answer 1

I have read this theory about "sincere" being a mutation of a very popular story based on tracing "sincere" back to the Latin words "sine" (without) and "cera" (wax). Unscrupulous Roman stoneworkers, the story goes, would sometimes cut corners by applying a thick coating of shiny wax to marble rather than taking the time to polish it properly. So widespread was this shabby practice, it is said, that honest stoneworkers had to advertise their wares as being "sine cera," without wax, to reassure their customers. "Sincere," the story goes, eventually came to be used more generally to mean "honest" and "straightforward."

Answer 2

Sin Cera

Answer 3

I have read different versions of the etymology of the word sincerity, but it is my understanding that it comes from the Latin sin cera, meaning: without wax.

So… if you are walking around without wax, you have the key to success. Go forth – waxless – and succeed!

Okay… maybe a little more explanation is needed.

If you know anything about Rome, you know they are very big on statues. As you may have noticed from the EFT chart on my website, I am particularly fond of Michelangelo’s “David.”

In ancient times, statues would be sold at outdoor markets – the streets would be lined with them.

Some sculptors were a little more skilled than others. For those with a little less skill, there was a handy band-aid for those unattractive cracks in the statue: wax. A little here in this fissure… a little there – often “a dab’ll do ya.”

Except, of course, on those warmer days… when the wax starts to melt a little… not pretty.

So, the finer statues were sin cera – without wax. If you went to a sculptor advertising this, you could be confident you wouldn’t get a lemon.

And you…?

What are the cracks in your way of being that you try to cover over… but which reveal themselves when the heat is on…?

When everything is cool, it is much easier for us to pretend we’ve got it all under control, and we are on our best behavior.

But when situations get stressful, any flaws in our character start to show themselves.

Now, most people don’t want to deal with those flaws. They hope to remain cool, and then no one needs to be the wiser.

They aren’t being sincere.

Fortunately, I know you aren’t like that. I know that you are interested (dare I say: committed…?) in always growing more into the person you were born to be.

Flawless.

Nothing to hide.

Sin cera.

I've taken pictures with me friend, the harp seal! Does that mean I'm into seals? Besides, they seem like they are so out of each other's leagues, one of them could be playing baseball while the other was playing basketball, if you catch my drift.

Answer 9

Actually that would be "without wax" ("con" means "with", "sin" is "without").

But I think a more likely option is you're looking for one word "sincera", which means "sincere".
