I think it’s called a rabbit hole because rabbits live there.

The word skeleton comes from the Ancient Greek word skeletós, which means “dried up”.
masterofn001@lemmy.ca 6 months ago
Does that mean Skeletor is one who dries people?
A7thStone@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Skeletor is Ben Shapiro’s alter ego confirmed!

Word skeletons are just strings of letters…I thought.

Kind of weird since Roman’s where like everywhere in eruope at one point.
FooBarrington@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Well, not entirely… One small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders.

Not so much north of the Rhine, which still leaves a lot of Europe Roman-free.

I guess it would have been faster if he just looked in the bears cave instead of a rabbit hole.
nexguy@lemmy.world 6 months ago
It is known that bear caves typically contain libraries on etymology of country names.

According to the anthem, romanians claim to have the blood of the romans and the name of Trajan, meaning that everyone in Romania had fathers that had fathers that had fathers… that were the sons of the roman emperor that conquered Dacia
nyctre@lemmy.world 6 months ago
We’ve never claimed that.
marcos@lemmy.world 6 months ago
If I remember it right, you used the name of the people that used the name of the people that claimed that.

The language they speak is also not a Slavic language but closer to Italian.

They’re smarter than the average beat for sure.

Those caves are an intelligent bunch.

Romania used to be called Dacia before the Romans committed genocide over there. It was named after the car brand.

Modern cave came from Old French which took it from Latin cavea

Maybe it’s a soy sauce situation. Bears are named after bears cave.
RandomVideos@programming.dev 6 months ago
Its called bears cave because bears made it
