Great list. I am always intrigued re how far back our words go. Was just looking into the word "metaphor" and found that the "phor" part goes back all the way to the PIE days 5000ya when it mean "to bear or carry" - as regarding a child.
I'd be interested in such a list that address old Anglo-Saxon words .

Love this I study Latin intermittently when I need a good humbling experience.
