This week, the sun, moon, and planet earth all come into conjunction as Kyle and Emily talk about the meaning and origin of the word syzygy.
This word lies where stars and planets align, thus it delves our hosts into some fascinating astronomy. They chat about the movements of celestial bodies, what causes an eclipse or a full moon, and exactly how much the Greek astronomers knew.
Speaking of the Greeks, Kyle and Emily also discuss a little astrología, or (in English) astrology. Turns out it doesn’t just involve your horoscope, but also the great works of Ptolomy, doomsday predictions, and something called the Letter of Toledo.
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
