YOĞURT (n)

definition: also spelled yoghurt, yogourt or yoghourt, is a food produced by bacterial fermentation of milk.

its origin: The word is derived from Turkish: yoğurt, and is usually related to the verb yoğurmak, "to knead", or "to be curdled or coagulated; to thicken".

The first use of yogurt was believed to be by Central Asian herdsmen, who stored their extra goat's milk in containers made out of animal stomachs to preserve it while on the go. Some of the milk  stored in these skins, to their surprise, became thick and tart. More importantly, it was still edible — even after a surprisingly long period of time in the hot sun.                                               by EREN OIB

TAXİ

Definition: The name “taxi” is obviously shortened from “taxicab”, which is derived from

 the two words: “taximeter” and “cabriolet”.  The taximeter was invented in 1891 and is used to record distances and calculate the fare.  Cabriolet refers to a horse drawn carriage where the driver stands in the back of the carriage.   The first documented use of the word “taxicab” was in March of 1907 in London.  Another phrase that derived from taximeter was a “taxi dancer”, which was a woman who sold her services at dance halls.

Its Origin: 1.The name “taximeter” itself is derived from the Mid-Latin “taxa”, meaning “tax or charge”. 2.Ultimately the word "taxi" may actually have its roots in the Ancient Greek language via the word "taxidi" meaning "journey".                                                                                    by Eren OİB
