100 Greek words we use everyday and what they actually mean!

<p>Hello Rachel, a Very good example! The word cemetery is taken from the Greek word Koimeterion, which is the word for 'sleeping place. ' The word implies that the land has been set aside as a burial ground. Here we have a classic case where the Greek word ''romanized'' and became let's say more Latin sound but yes you are absolutely right. Cemetery has Greek origin and it means an eternal dormitory. Congratulations!</p>

<p>Here's a very short offer of a Greek word I believe we use every day.<img srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/822abc430051582514da2e94f7093e4a/6e81b644.png 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/822abc430051582514da2e94f7093e4a/6e81b644.png 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/822abc430051582514da2e94f7093e4a/6e81b644.png" loading="lazy" alt="Greek word we use every day - image 1 - student project"></p>
