TIL the word "apron" comes from the Old French word "napron." Over time "a napron" became "an apron." in c/til@lemmy.ca

orange is the same: "a norange -> an orange", hence "una naranja" in Spanish.

I just signed up tonight. I tried to log in about an hour after signing up, and it worked. Now I have to see whether I can find a community that lives elsewhere on lemmy.
