So I was browsing through the course announcements and there was a meme about "Evening." I questioned where the word "evening" came from so I decided to do my wikipedia trial on that.
Evening: A part of the day when the sun begins to lower towards the horizon. Most often associated with eating supper, social gatherings and entertainment.
Vespers: An evening prayer. They take place as dusk begins to fall. This a prayer where you give thanks for the day and an evening sacrifice of praise to God.
Greek Language: Has the longest documented history of any living language. This language is used in a lot of academic settings, particularly in science, astronomy, mathematics, and logic. The writing system uses the Greek Alphabet.
Aristotle: Greek philosopher and scientist. At the age of seventeen he joined Platos Academy in athens and remained there until he was 37!!! WOW. He tutored Alexander the Great. He also studied the concept of having arms and organs regenerate. (octopus arm being cut off and it growing back).
