Can somebody please take the time to explain to me the difference between DemiGog and Demigod, I have seen them both used in sorta the same reference many times so I am kinda curious if they are different or what?

I'm already confused .. :arcadefre

dem·a·gogue also dem·a·gog ( P ) Pronunciation Key (dm-gôg, -gg)
n.
A leader who obtains power by means of impassioned appeals to the emotions and prejudices of the populace.
A leader of the common people in ancient times.


dem·i·god ( P ) Pronunciation Key (dm-gd)
n.
Mythology.
A male being, often the offspring of a god and a mortal, who has some but not all of the powers of a god.
An inferior deity; a minor god.
A deified man.

Why should I give up that nice thought?

Do you speak from experience, Amp?

Well, for starts, it's demigod and demagogue. So you can see straight away that they are going to have entirely different meanings.

Demi meaning half, and god being rather self explanatory. A demigod is the offspring of a mortal and a god.

Demagogue is from the greek word Demagogos; a leader of the people. Demos, the people and Agosos, leading or one who leads.
