Why Do the Lyrics of These Songs Always End with #Tonight? @DavidBennettPiano #Tonite #Night #Nite #NiteNite #GoodNight
'That word' is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The word “Tonight” (i.e. in the Coming Night, as opposed to most words ending in 'Night' actually referring to 'the night before') is built on ancient words that mean "|At, |On + Night."
The word "Night" is built on ancient words that mean "to be |Dark."
Know anything else interesting about that? Comment!
