[小7 10]

如題@@...

忽然想到很想問..

[訪客]

Olympic, Olympia

源自希臘

[阿甫比幣 10]

原來還有典故的

[starjimmy 10]

Olympiad

Etymology: Middle English Olympias, from Latin Olympiad-, Olympias, from Greek, from Olympia, site of ancient Olympic Games

1 : one of the 4-year intervals between Olympic Games by which time was reckoned in ancient Greece

2 : a quadrennial celebration of the modern Olympic Games; also : a competition or series of competitions resembling an olympiad especially in variety or challenge

所以其實這個單字本來是依個計時的單位喔!!
