What is the word history of mosaic?

This word came through French and is based on Latin musaeum, museum, musi(v)um 'decoration with small square stones'. These Latin words may derive from the ancient Greek meaning 'place holy to the Muses' and the decorations may originally have been dedicated to the Muses. Ultimately, the etymology before the Latin is unknown as there also has been evidence of those words being derived from oriental languages. Unlike inlay, in which the pieces to be applied are set into a surface that has been hollowed out to receive the design, mosaic pieces are applied on a surface that has been prepared with an adhesive. In antiquity, mosaics were first made of uncut pebbles of uniform size. The Greeks, who elevated the pebble mosaic to a refined art, also invented the tessera technique. Tesserae (Latin for 'cubes' or 'dice') are pieces that have been cut into triangular, square, or other regular shapes so that they will fit closely into the grid of cubes that make up the mosaic surface. Another form of the word - Mosaic - means 'of Moses or the laws attributed to him in the Bible'.

What is the etymology of volcano?

The original word for volcano was vulcano (c. 1611) meaning 'burning mountain' from the Latin Vulcanus or Volcanus. Vulcan was the Roman god of fire and metalworking (son of Jupiter and Juno and corresponding to the Greek god Hephaestus) and the term volcano was first applied to Mt. Etna by the Romans; it was viewed as the seat of this God, the place where he forged thunderbolts that caused such eruptions. It was changed to volcano around 1690. A volcano is a vent in the earth's crust, usually a depression or crater atop a somewhat conical hill or mountain which contains molten or hot rock and steam that is ejected from the vent. There are types of volcano: mud, shield, and pseudo

Where did manila in Manila folder come from?

Manila envelope, Manila paper, and Manila folder were originally made of hemp from Manila, the capital of the Philippines. The material, from the fibers of the pseudostem of the abaca plant Musa textilis, was buff or light yellow-brown in color. Now what we call a Manila folder is often made from other types of paper.

What is the origin of the word Christmas?

Christmas comes from the Old English words Cristes moesse, 'the mass or festival of Christ'. The first celebration took place in Rome about the middle of the fourth century. The exact date of the Nativity is not known, but even in pre-Christian times the period between December 25 and January 6 was considered a special time of year - now known as "The Twelve Days of Christmas". The abbreviation Xmas, thought as sacrilegious by some, is entirely appropriate. The letter X (chi) is the first letter in the Greek word for Christ

Where did the term deviled eggs come from?

The cooking term devil means 'to chop food finely and mix with hot seasoning or sauce, usually after cooking'. It is now usually used as a past participle in deviled crab, deviled egg, etc. The verb in the cooking sense originally meant 'to grill with hot condiments'. The use of hot seasoning, sauce, or condiments is the association with the devil. Deviled can also refer to spiced, potted meats such as deviled hams and sardines. The first mention of deviled eggs was in 1786 in Great Britain. Stuffed eggs appeared in a 15th century Italian cookbook. Devil's food cake is associated with the devil because it is a very dark chocolate

What is the etymology of the word ampersand?

The ampersand (&) came into English around 1837, formed by an alteration or corruption of the phrase and per se = and or and per se - and, which was the old way to represent the character &. This phrase was used in glossaries and meant '& by itself = and' or 'the character & by itself is the word and'. Latin per se 'by itself' was formerly used to name a letter that stood by itself to represent a word. An ampersand is also called short and.

What is the origin of pizza?

The common belief is that Italians invented pizza, but its origin goes back to ancient times in the Middle East. Babylonians, Israelites, Egyptians, Armenians, Greeks and Romans, and other ancient cultures ate flat, unleavened bread cooked in mud ovens. The Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians were eating the bread topped with olive oil and native spices (what is today called focaccia). But Italy's version of the dish, especially from Naples, is the one we are familiar with - with tomato, cheese, and other toppings and seasonings. Supposedly, this pizza was first created by the baker Raffaele Esposito in Naples. His creation was immediately a favorite, and Esposito was called to make a pizza for the visit of King Umberto and Queen Margherita of Italy in 1889. The first known pizza shop was the Port 'Alba in Naples, which opened in 1830 and is still open today. Pizza spread to America, England, France, and Spain but it was little-known in these countries until World War II. In occupying Italian territory, many American and European soldiers tasted pizza. In America, Italian immigrants sold pizza in their stores and the first pizzeria was opened in 1905 by Gennuardo Lombardi at 53 1/3 Spring Street in New York City. The origin of the word pizza is uncertain. It is Italian for 'pie' and may have come from Latin pix 'pitch' or Greek pitta.
