I have a confession to make. There is a reason why this word appears in my list of words. It’s not that I can find out much about the etymology of the word, nor is it because it’s particularly fascinating. More of which later. The word is of dubious origin – another piece of dead-end research for any interesting titbits on the history or first usage of it! |
