It comes from latin meaning "to slow down", I believe. And into English it probably came through French.
I didn't know that, interesting!
Although most of French words are of Latin/Greek origin and about 60% of English words are of French origin, even though it is a Germanic language.
..if I'm not mistaken.

That's cause those losery Brits let themselves be conquered and ruled by the French. What a bunch of 'tards, amirite?

Says the german, aweosme war track record you've got. 😛
Again, that's like a 100 people attacking some weak dude just out of the hospital and then boasting "hahaha, you only killed half of us before we put you back in the hospital"
Maybe you should boast about another achievement you had...the invention of the concentration camp perhaps, or your dreadful record in football, or your economy, health and crime rates....hmm

Wow.
That even stung me a little bit, and my ancestors left England for America over 250 years ago, for a good reason.

They were our allies, if they to to say they saved us fine, but Nazi Germany wasn't going to stop at Europe, eventually the US would have felt their grip.
Originally posted by lil bitchinessYeah, we'll never know, and it's good that we won't. It's good that the US got involved, even if they make movies like Enigma, where they take glory for other countries' triumphs.
I think Murka would have eventually come in front of the barrel, but if Hitler hadn't gone for the Russians...well, who knows what would have happened.
Keeping two fronts...like Izzard said, Hitler hadn't played Risk as a child. No, he didn't.
And God bless Izzard, he's one funny ****er.

You can defend yourself, just do nothing over the top.
