++Origin of 5 words used daily++
++NOW:++ The word “now” has its origins in Middle English as “nou” and comes from Old English “nu” which means “at the present time, at this moment, immediately; now that,” and was also used as an interjection and as an introductory word (1*). It comes from Proto-Germanic “nu” (source also of Old Norse “nu”, Dutch “nu”, Old Frisian “nu”, German “nun”, Gothic “nu” “now”), from PIE “nu” “now” (source also of Sanskrit and Avestan “nu”, Old Persian “nuram”, Hittite “nuwa”, Greek “nu”, “nun”, Latin “nunc”, Old Church Slavonic “nyne”, Lithuanian “nu”, Old Irish “nu-”) (1).

++VERB TO BE++: The verb “to be” has a complex history and is actually mashed together from a few Indo-European roots (1*). The Old English verb “beon” comes from the Indo-European root bheu-, which means “to be, to become”. From this root, we got the forms “be, been, being” (1). The Old English verb “beon” means “be, exist, come to be, become, happen”. The Proto-Germanic root biju- means “I am, I will be” (2).

++Article THE:++ The word “the” is the most frequently used word in the English language and accounts for seven percent of all printed English-language words(1*). It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender (1*). The late Old English þe is the nominative masculine form of the demonstrative pronoun and adjective. After c.950, it replaced earlier se (masc.), seo (fem.), þæt (neuter), and probably represents se altered by the th- form which was used in all the masculine oblique cases (2*).

++THE FIRST PERSON SINGULAR PRONOUNS (I and me):++ The first-person singular pronouns “I” and “me” have their origins in Old English. “I” originates from Old English (OE) “ic”, which had in turn originated from the continuation of Proto-Germanic ik, and ek (1). The Proto-Germanic root came, in turn, from the Proto Indo-European language (PIE) eg- (1). “Me” is a pronoun of the first person in oblique cases and comes from Old English “me” (dative), “me”, “mec” (accusative); oblique cases of “I”, from Proto-Germanic meke (accusative), mes (dative) (2). (1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_%28pronoun%29 (2*) https://www.etymonline.com/word/me
++Conjunction AND:++ The conjunction “and” comes from Old French “conjonction” meaning "union, joining"(1*). It is derived from Latin “coniunctionem” (nominative “coniunctio”), noun of action from past-participle stem of “coniugare” meaning "to join together"(1*). It is formed from the assimilated form of “com” meaning “with, together” and “iugare” meaning “to join”, from “iugum” meaning "yoke"(1*). (1*) https://www.etymonline.com/word/conjunction

Chocolate: Originates from Nahuatl "xocolātl", which means "bitter water". Alcohol: Comes from Arabic "al-kuḥl", which means "powdered substance". Cotton: Derives from Old English "coton", derived from French "coton", which in turn comes from Arabic "quṭun". Tobacco: From Spanish "tabaco", which in turn comes from Taíno "tabako". Banana: From Portuguese "banana", which derives from Wolof (African language) "banaana".
good contribution
Insurance: Originated from the French word "ensurer", meaning "to pledge" or "an engagement to marry". Over time, this evolved into "assurance" and then "insurance" as the meaning shifted from a general pledge to the modern concept of a contract for financial protection against loss. The word can be further traced to the Latin "insura" meaning "to make secure".
Negotiation: originates form de Latin word negōtiātiō, meaning "business" or "trade", which itself comes from negotium, a compound of nec (not) and otium (leisure). Thus, the word literally means "not leisure" or "busyness". It entered English through Middle French around the 15th century, initially referring to "dealing with people".
Coverage: comes from the verb "to cover", which itself originated from the Latin word co-operire (to cover completely) and operire (to close, to cover). The noun suffix "-age" was added to "cover" in the United States around 1910–1915. The earliest recorded use of the noun "coverage" is from 1912.
Exclusion: originates from the Latin word exclūsiō, meaning "a shutting out". It comes from the verb excludere, which is formed from ex ("out") and claudere ("to close"). The term entered English in the late Middle Ages (around the 14th or 15th century) through Middle English, from Anglo-French.
Percentage: comes from the Latin phrase "per centum," which means "for each hundred" or "by the hundred". The word "percent" itself is a shortened form of "per cento," an Italian expression for "for a hundred". The suffix "-age" was added to create "percentage," meaning the "rate per hundred".
I do not understand why English is so popular even when it is non-phonetic as other languages.
America is a superpower, not only in the economic but in the cultural sense. I believe that is the main reason.
It is a business language, like in the past was the Latin or French
Vlogger: This term emerged in the early 2000s, as video-sharing platforms like YouTube gained popularity. A vlogger is someone who creates and shares video content, often in a blog-like format, where they share their thoughts, experiences, and expertise.
Infodemic: This word gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically in 2020. It's a combination of "information" and "epidemic," used to describe the rapid spread of misinformation and disinformation online.
Cryptobro: This term originated in the 2010s, as cryptocurrency and blockchain technology gained mainstream attention. It refers to an enthusiastic, often overly zealous, proponent of cryptocurrency, typically associated with specific online communities.
Doomscrolling: This term emerged in the late 2010s, as social media platforms became increasingly filled with negative news and anxiety-provoking content. It describes the act of scrolling through bad news on social media, often late at night, despite feeling anxious or overwhelmed.
Carbon footprint: This term originated in the 1990s, as concerns about climate change grew. It refers to the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced by human activities, such as driving, flying, or energy consumption.
Great.
These words are very common all over the world.
Social media is increasingly popularizing the use of English words.

Tell me in English the new words o last words in English?
Diego Mauricio, language is constantly evolving due to technology and social media. New words often emerge to describe modern habits or digital tools.
Examples of relatively recent additions include:
These terms show how globalization and the internet accelerate language change. To explore how these shifts happen, I recommend checking out:
These classes will help you understand the mechanisms behind how new vocabulary is adopted and integrated into daily communication.
As a 3D artist, I usually use some words in my language that comes from a interpretation in English.
Like Rigginig: This word means the process to add bones to a fictional character inside a software before the animation process.
This word comes from the word "Rig" that was create in North Germanic roots. The origin comes from masts and sails
The other words are Render (originates from the Latin reddere ("to give back," "return"), evolving through Vulgar Latin rendere and Old French rendre into Middle English (c. 14th century)
And last but not least is the word design, it originates from the Latin designare ("to mark out, devise, or designate"), combining de- ("out") and signare ("to mark")

TIMELINE:
Today’s English.
It’s your turn. Think of 5 words you use a lot in your day-to-day communication. Investigate their origin and share your findings with other students in the comment section.
1. Fortunately
The word fortunately comes from the Latin word "fortuna", which means luck or fate. Later, in Old French, it became "fortune", and English added the ending “-ly” to make it an adverb. So, fortunately means something happened in a lucky or positive way.
2. Easy
Easy comes from the Old French word "aisié", which meant comfortable or convenient. That word came from the Latin "adjacens", meaning lying close. Over time, the meaning changed in English to describe something not difficult or simple to do.
3. Hard
The word hard comes from Old English "heard", which meant firm, solid, or brave. This word has Germanic roots and is related to the German word "hart". In modern English, hard is used to describe something that is not easy or difficult to do.
4. Support
Support comes from the Latin verb "supportare", which means to carry from underneath. It is a mix of “sub” (under) and “portare” (to carry). In English, the word developed to mean helping or holding something up, both physically and emotionally.
5. Skill
The word skill originally came from Old Norse "skil", meaning distinction, knowledge, or understanding. It entered English during the Viking influence in the Middle Ages. Today, skill means the ability to do something well.

New words and expressions are being added all the time. Many of these words come from other languages, such as French, Spanish, and Arabic. In fact, around 80% of the current English words have roots in other languages and the rise of social media and the Internet will continue to lead us to the creation of many new words. 10 years ago, for example, we didn’t have words such as “selfie” or “hater”, nor phrases, such as “let’s google it” or “whatsapp me”, and this is due to the influence of globalization
80% I can not Believe it
