"I like walking early mornings when the nocturnal wildlife quietly withdraws as the diurnal wildlife noisily rouses for another day." (Kevin J. Cook, Fort Collins Coloradoan, June 29, 2008) Can you guess which of the following words have the same Latin root as our word du jour, "diurnal"?
The answer: all of them except "daily" (it's from Old English, not Latin). "Diurnal" and all of the other terms in our little quiz (and "du jour," too) come ultimately from "dies," the Latin word for "day."A. journey B. dial C. quotidian D. diary E. meridian F. journal G. circadian H. daily
