and senior coeds also hold a
proportional lead over the

You have probably used an
1 encyclopedia many times but
know how the name
originated? "En" means in,
and is sometimes omitted.
The next part of the word,
'"cyclos," a Greek word,
means circle and tells as the
book is not about one thing,
but goes all the way around
knowledge. The last part, is
an English form of a Greek
word, ""paidia," which means
teaching or instruction. So an
encyclopedia is a book of a
circle of teaching.
Another word with an in
teresting origin is postal, re
ferring t the mail. The word
post comes from a Latin
word, "positum." which
means fied" or "placed."
The old Romans had posts
