The word journey comes from journeé (old French) that means a day's travel or a day's work. In the 12th century, people used the word solely as a noun. Two centuries later, the word was also used as a verb, meaning to travel from place to place. There you go, trivia information for Jeopardy.

DeleteWhat a vehicle! Has it some kind of screen on?
ReplyDeleteNo screen at all. I wonder how the trucker polished the truck so that it didn't reflect light onto approaching cars.
DeleteUsing the french pronounciation would make our journee's more exciting!
ReplyDeleteMais oui!
DeleteI love the word "journey" as a noun or a verb! It denotes excitement and discovery to me!
ReplyDeleteMakes sense.

DeleteWhat a shine.

I was about to ask if it would reflect a Harvest Moon as in the song, "Shine on, shine on, harvest moon" but then it would be night.
