ábrete sésamo: The expression "open sesame" is used as a magic word to uncover or discover something. It has a literary origin, since it is found in the story Ali Baba and the forty thieves within the stories of The Thousand and One Nights, stories collected from Indian and Middle Eastern tradition or literature. There is no certainty of why those words that the chief of the thieves used to magically move the cover of the cave where he hid the booty of his robberies, to us the "sesame" comes from the French transcription of Antoine Galland (Sesame, ouvre-toi) on a compilation (supposedly) of Abuadd-Allah Muhammed el-Gahshigar, and later from the English version of Richard Burton (Open sesame), and perhaps it is a transliteration from Arabic that he may have taken it from Hebrew 1513; 1501; 1513; 1502; 1497; 1501; ( sem samim "the name of heaven" ) as a Kabbalistic formula, although a deformation of the same Arabic for the onomatopoeia timtim by "bell, cover" is also suggested; but it is more certain that it is really because of the plan of 1587; 1605; 1587; 1605; (simsim "sesame, sesame") and that the translation is literal. It turns out that sesame oil is also identified with religious and mysterious practices since ancient Babylon, but there is a relationship with the importance of the pod opening naturally and dropping the seeds (the treasure) in order to prepare it, and that would make an association with these magic words. See sesame close, abracadabra, hocus pocus, beam me up, Scotty.
