An etymologist is a person who studies etymology.
Etymology is an account of the history of a particular word or element of a word.
Through old texts and comparisons with other languages, etymologists try to reconstruct the history of words — when they entered a language, from what source, and how their form and meaning changed.
An Etymologist is different then a philologist, one who studies linguistics and etymology.
Beware, those who are nescient often misuse and mispronounce'entymology' which is actually the study of insects!

Get the Twackle mug.(C-squared) To cut off a right angle on a path.
For instance, you may be walking from point A to point B to point C which resembles an L shape. To C^2 that, you walk straight from point A to point C, which makes a diagnol line, or the third side of a right triangle.
Suppose the distance from Point A to Point B is 10 feet.
Suppose the distance from Point B to point C is 8 feet.
Suppose the distance from Point A to Point C is 12 feet.
-this would make a right triangle
-it is shorter to walk 12 feet from POINT A TO POINT C, rather than walking 18 feet, from Point A TO POINT B TO POINT C...
You just C SQUARED THAT SHIT!
