Some Stellar Words
I’m always pleased to see one of Susie Dent‘s tweets – she posts a lot of lexicographical and etymological* stuff (most Brits will know her from her place in Dictionary Corner on TV’s Countdown – but I was especially pleased to see this one! Words we use on a daily basis inspired by the stars!
Two Latin words for a star or constellation: ‘aster’ and ‘sidus’. They glimmer across English:
disaster: an ill-starred event.
asterisk: a little star.
astronaut: a star-sailor.
consider: to observe the stars.
desire: to wish upon a star.— Susie Dent (@susie_dent) June 24, 2020
