Yeah, still is Quecksilber in German. I assumed quicksilver to be as common, as English, as mercury. Gotta take a look at Anglish, see what them nerds are up to.

Quicksilver would be used to give a more poetic or more archaic spin to what you're saying or writing. It common parlance you wouldn't generally hear quicksilver used.

It's a really cool concept I think, and the community seems generally alright, and is quite varied in their interpretations of Anglish.
