Trivia!

From where does the word "slave" derive?

This is a good read.

I'm not talking about the Hebrew word abed or abodah.  I'm talking about the English word slave and from where it is derived.

ORIGIN Middle English: shortening of Old French esclave, equivalent of medieval Latin sclava (feminine) ‘Slavic (captive)’: some South Slavic peoples had been reduced to a servile state by conquest in the 9th cent.

Some researchers believe this is directly linked to the ongoing Jihad, since the 6th century A.D.
