I have a habit of looking up the etymology of words before I start - TopicsExpress



          

I have a habit of looking up the etymology of words before I start writing. Usually, it just a way to procrastinate. But sometimes, when I know where a word has been, I feel more equipped to take my words where they need to go. When I set out to write an essay about my uncle Gutta and kindess, I learned that the word kindess is related to kin. To be treated kindly is to be treated as if one were a relative, a part of a family.
