Trivia on 'trivia'
In ancient Rome, a trivium was an intersection of three roads (tri, "three" + vium, road).
According to the Romans, when people met at a trivium, they would discuss trivialis ("inconsequential things") - which eventually helped give trivia its modern meaning.

If you can answer the question with "him" then you use ‘whom.’ --> they both end in ‘m’.
If you can answer the question with “he,” use ‘who.’
-Whom are you going to the concert with?
-I'm going with him.
-Who broke the toaster?
-He did.

Around 1700, English gained the verb 'cop,' meaning "to get hold of, catch, capture."
By the mid-1800s, 'cop' is recorded in print as being used to refer to what police do to criminals.
Police were then called ‘coppers’...one who ‘cops.’
'Copper' was then shortened to 'cop.'
