etymologist
an etymologist is a person who studies etymology.
etymology is an account of the history of a particular word or element of a word.
through old texts and comparisons with other languages, etymologists try to reconstruct the history of words — when they entered a language, from what source, and how their form and meaning changed.
an etymologist is different then a philologist, one who studies linguistics and etymology.
beware, those who are nescient often misuse and mispr-nounce’entymology’ which is actually the study of insects!
(et-uh-mol-uh-jist)
if you want to learn the origin of the word nescient, then you should consult an etymologist!
denise: if we had resources available to us, we could hire an etymologist to do our homework!
kenny: let’s just log onto youtube and watch hotforwords…
denise: isn’t she a philologist?
