In response let me say that, indeed, the English 'to open' corresponds to the German 'oeffnen' and that as an adjective it is 'auf'. The point is that 'open' is not a fundamental concept, but is rather derived from the more basic 'up, off'.

I want to add that perhaps 'open' is related to the German 'oben'.
