Thank you to all of the blog readers who’ve commented positively on Word of the Day. For those of you who’ve asked what prompted EVS Translations to begin this daily feature we would like to take you behind the words. Let us start with Edward R. Vick, Managing Director of EVS Translations and the initiator of word of the day.
As a Cambridge graduate, Edward has always been fascinated by what was behind the words and has had a lifelong interest in etymology, constantly researching the origins of words and the circumstances of their entry into the English language. And now he takes great pleasure in sharing his discoveries.
“Writing word of the day has become one of the most interesting and enjoyable aspects of my daily routine. It is fascinating to get behind the words. The history of words is the history of human hope, discovery and progress. It is a daily pleasure to share these ideas”
Follow Word of the Day and discover what is behind the words we use, the ideas we share and the developments that have shaped all of our daily lives.
