Ya swipes a word from some weirdo foreignian language
Yes, my favorites are bus, which is an abbreviation off the end of omnibus which in Latin means 'for every (body)', and, then you take the the auto off of automobile and jam it on the front for autobus; auto is from Greek where it means 'he; self'. Now that's one crazy mixed up word, yet nobody blinks as it rumbles by.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.
