Fun with Greek!

My little Latin lessons went over so well here, I thought we'd have a little fun with Greek as well!

Here are some Greek words that you don't know you know, along with their English etymological counterparts.

The basis for this study is the Prologue to St. John's Gospel (with a few extra words thrown in for good measure).
