Hello friends…

Can you remember this video?

this guy that we’d rather see with his close on

is Morpheus.

He’s a kinda shapeshifter

so he can appear in dreams in human form!

After that video, my mom told me

not to talk about Gods around the world,

because it may be considered …

you know…

So, I decided to tell you that…

Did you know you can already speak Greek?

You don’t believe me?

Time…

Time proves all things!

Although we’ve never experienced democracy,

we know what it means!

Demos means people

and Kratos means power in Greek…

So it means:

power to the people!

Hey…

you’d better add politics

to your not-to-say list!

Ok…

Now tell me how you’d describe a dinosaur?

A dangerous, horrible reptile

hm?

The word we use to call

these ancient creatures

comes from the Greek words deinos

which means terrible

and savra which means lizard.

Look here…

these are planets

right?

The word planet comes from planomai

which is a Greek word

and it means to wander.

To wander means to walk slowly

across or around an area,

this walk usually doesn’t have a clear direction

or purpose!

To the ancient Greeks

planets were simply wandering stars!

Well

That’s all for today!

Should I teach you more English words

with Greek origins

or you wanna know English words

from other languages or cultures?

Let me know in the comments…
