Etymology

By: KC Isabel F. Ebajan


? What is
Etymology?

Etymology
Etymology is the study of the origins
of words. The English language is
living and growing. Although many of
our words have been part of our
language for many years, new words
are added all the time. Following are
various ways our language is
influenced.
Origin
An origin is a start. You
could say that the origin of
yoga was in India, since
that's where the practice
began, or that the origin of
the strawberries in the
market is Mexico, since they
were grown there.
