Where in the world are your words from? 29 June 2010

Copywriting is all about telling stories, but what about the tales behind the words?

If you’re fascinated by things like the links between the words ‘Tsar’ and ‘Caesar’ or why ‘cravat’ did a return journey to its country of origin, this is for you.
