‘Cleave’ can refer to splitting something apart.

‘Cleave’ can also refer to the uniting of two things.

…what?

A word that is also its own opposite is called a ‘contronym.’

‘Cancel’ comes from a Latin word meaning “to make like a lattice.”

When people needed to annul or void a document, they sometimes would mark it with crosshatches

XXXXX

which resembled a lattice.

So the document became ‘canceled.’

...we hope this post doesn’t get us that.

It’s embarrassing that a corporation that could easily afford to hire a real human artist instead chose to splash a sloppy AI image on their home page and somehow ALSO failed to even take 5 seconds to consult a real human who has actually touched knitting needles before to verify its accuracy
huh so Google is kicking off the new year by pissing off knitters that’s fun

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little."

‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.”

So a napkin is a little tablecloth.

10/10, no notes.

"My mom died."
"I have cancer."
"I can't have kids."

These and other conversation-killing reasons we might not talk about grief on this week's post.
