Description
This fully illustrated book traces the etymology of words that have descended from the word for foot in Proto-Indo-European (PIE). How did a 6,000 year-old word for foot transform into pawn and pioneer, expedite and impeach, pilot and platypus? The book also features introductions to other Indo-European languages like French and Persian, Greek and Bengali, Yiddish and Ukrainian.
