I have always been interested in words. Words are part of everybody's character and define how you are seen in different situations when you use them according to your persona at the moment. Yes, all of us have different personas in different scenarios such as the workplace, the bar, the school, etc.
In any case, the word that I have selected to start this series is: horologe.
Horologe, according to the Webster's dictionary, is a timekeeping device. What made me admire this word is that finally I found an explanation for the origin of the Spanish word "reloj" (watch). Both come from the greek horologion, in which we can easily see hour/hora too.
