There was an English teacher who studied entomology at the high school where I worked as a math teacher and then a counselor.
He was also a very funny person. We had three lunch periods during our school day because we had so many students, over 2,000, in our building.
I mention this because students as well as teachers never knew when our lunch period would be, Lunch A, B, or C. I was always happy when I discovered that MILES, the funny English teacher, had lunch the same period as me because I knew that I would be in for a few laughs every day at lunchtime including interesting facts about words and other things.
Word origins are so interesting, like the word Maudlin.
PS. I never heard the word THIRDING . Why did you post that word?
