Nerd Observation: The Word Parity
First of all, did you know you can use Google to very easily define words? You can try “define <word>” and wha-la, without a mouse click you’ve got a definition of the word right there!
Anywho, the other day I looked up the word parity (I am a nerd) and it has two pretty unique definitions.
- The state or condition of being equal, esp. regarding status or pay.
- The fact or condition of having borne children.
What! How can one word mean these two things! Maybe I’m weird, but I find that kind of funny and interesting.
