You say isolato, I say isolato.
I suppose that pun doesn’t work in text format, but get the gist I think you did.
This all refers to an idea I’ve had for occasional posts; ‘etynoms’.
‘Etynom’ is a play on ‘etymon’, which is the root of ‘etymology’. I like etymology, see. Specifically, an etymon is an earlier or root form of another word- the kind you look for while researching etymology. The greek means something like ‘the true sense’. For example: ‘equine’ is an etymon of ‘equestrian’.
It’s fun! Especially when you change it to ‘etynom’ and pop a picture of a cat into the mix.
