Fun for Friday: Greek Ships and Related Words
For this week’s Fun for Friday and etymology, I’m sharing a post from Useless Etymology about the Greek word “naus” and the variety of English words that come from that root. As you might guess from the title, it’s about ships, but there are many other words that come from the same root. And when you think about what those words are, it all makes sense, but they may be words you hadn’t connected in this way before!
