Hello all! I just created an Etymology community since I noticed there wasn’t a local one for those of us on LemmyWorld. Hope to see it grow. :)

Origin: late Middle English (in the sense ‘sign at the bottom of a document’): from Latin subscribere, from sub- ‘under’ + scribere ‘write’.
I look forward to talking about insects!
Etymology is for word origins😊 But if you like bugs, you’re looking for entomology! There seems to be a cool community over here: !entomology@mander.xyz
(It was a joke. The mandatory one whenever an etymology group is set up.)
Ah, whoosh on my part. I didn’t want to assume anybody’s background or understanding!😅😆
What is the etymology of etymology?
From Greek etumos “true, real” + -logia “study of” 🤗
Been waiting for this one!
In Navajo, yatahey is widely used as a greeting because it is derived from the Hebrew language yaahey /yah-ah-teh/.In real life, it literally means “all is good.”.
Can you do the eff word, first? Just demystify that bad boy real quick.
