Haha, that's pretty awesome. Ny hubby does a alphabet adventures series sometimes that explains the origins of words, whats super interesting is that some initially meant the opposite of what we used them for these days. Language is a complicated thing.

Oh yes, that is part of my particular music specialisation. The idea that words and their meanings have changed over the centuries is the example I give to help people realise that music has done the same. This, the way that music is played by regular, professional (non specialist) orchestras and musicians is very much a modern take on the original. Often with completely different intentions from the original intent!
@bengy I saw two cellos live and they were fantastic, we saw them on you tube once and I was in awe of the awesomeness so as soon as I heard they were coming to Perth I got us tickets. Not sure if that is completely off topic lol but I feel that it may no be lol.
Nice, I've seen a couple of their videos! I think you probably go to listen to more concerts than I do. Funny, as a musician, I just don't have the urge to go and listen... I get antsy and I want to be playing...
@bengy not these days, that was a one-off, we generally go to the theatre or a concert once a year, much less since finding Steemit and now having little man lol.
