Inspiration: The Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology edited by C.T. Onions- such an incredible 1800's name
Description: Word origins fascinate me, and I wanted to discover the etymologies of all the words I write here on my website. Some words are simple - the word area in English comes from the word area in Latin. Some words are thornier - the word unbelievably is forged from (1) un- (2) believe (3) able (4) -ly, which each have their own multiplying, jagged branches into the past. Cool to explore, time-consuming to visualize. So for now, I stuck with visualizing the simple words - the ones on my website with straight line, direct etymologies all the way back to their origins.
