Where do the words (and expressions) come from
Today, in a lesson, I learned zhe expression "it gives me the heebie-jeebies". I was told the translation of course, but I am curious about the original meaning - if you can say so. Greeks call it etymology, coming from the word etymos meaning "true".
From time to time I'd wish to know more about these connections.
Language is living also in and from the past, isn't it?
