| Real Meaning of "European Union" |
| 2006-08-05 |
| From a commenter at Dr. Weevil's website - far too good not to pass along. :-D 5. There’s another bit of misused Latin out there too. The European Union calls itself Unio Europaea (I actually checked with the Latin translator for the organization). In classical Latin Unio means pearl. That is, pollution in the body which must be excreted over for continued survival. Apt really. Comment by Tim Worstall — Saturday: August 5, 2006 @ 8:46 AM EDT No sh*t! |
