On 24 July 2023, the centenary of the signing of the Treaty of Lausanne that defined the borders of modern #Türkiye and Greece, good to remember @bruceclark7’s excellent Twice A Stranger which describes the population exchange it mandated.

TIL..... #etymology

[Dr Danny Bate @DannyBate4]

'Gas' is a loanword from Dutch, in which the word first appears as a scientific concept in the 17th century.

It's thought to derive from Ancient Greek kháos (hence 'chaos'), with Dutch approximating the initial 'kh'-sound of the Greek with the fricative sound of Dutch G.
