Yeah, I look up etymology because I love how there are millennia of human culture condensed in a word as it migrates and evolves across classes, cultures and languages. Will it be Norse, Germanic, Latin or maybe Dravidic? Will it have been loaned from x to y to z and then back to x with new meanings?
I had hoped it might have come from reading rapidly in the days of uncut pages where you have to eagerly tear each new page to read it. But no, lol.
