one of those false etymology posts but with the actual etymology of the word
I was today years old when I realized helicopter is helico- (as in helix) -pter (as in pterodactyl) 😂
sooo was anyone going to tell me that the -ter in daughter is the same suffix as the -ther in mother father and brother but under an exception to grimm's law or like
OMG WAIT I FIGURED IT OUT
IT'S "LASER" BECAUSE IT'S LIGHT AMPLIFICATION BY STIMULATED EMISSION OF RADIATION
WHAT???
