Etymology explores the origin of words - the history and development of individual words in a language. It asks a question you're likely familiar with: "where did this word come from?"
The last video introduced etymology as a diachronic (historical) method that seeks to recover and build the history of words. It payed special attention to the way sounds change over time, and presented ways scholars trace a word back to its earliest retrievable form (etymon).
In this video, I shift the attention to semantics. Like sound change, meaning change is a dynamic process. Consider various types of semantic change (abstract to concrete, general to specific), origins of meaning change (calques, semantic borrowings) and changes that reveal connections between meaning & use (like archaic, poetic & obsolete words).
I'll cap it off with the basic conventions you'll want to notice when looking up an etymology, or follow when doing an etymology. I'll also look at common sources of etymologies (dictionaries, popular "folk etymologies" and onomastics).

This is a cover of Flight of the Concord's "Sellotape" It's a fun song we like to do.
Lives are like retractible pencils
If you push them too hard theyre gonna break
And people are like paper dolls
Paper dolls and people, theyre a similar shape
Hmm hmm hm
Love is like a roll of tape
Its real good for making two things one
But just like that roll of tape
Love sometimes breaks off before you were done
Another way that love is similar to tape
That Ive noticed
Is sometimes its hard to see the end
You search on the roll
(search on the roll)
Search on the roll
(searching round the roll)
Search on the roll
(search)
With your fingernail
Again and again
And again and again
And again.

Jocelyn Catterson, Sam Robison, and CJ Garcia performing an original song. Here are the lyrics:
It started with my yearly trip
Just me, myself and my Caribbean ship
Puerto Rico was my land of choice
It was poverty stricken and lacked a voice
Previously I had sailed the islands of Greece
Just me myself and the mixalodeon e
I couldnt understand the abundant wealth the shipping mergants sick with greed and obsessed with self
Chorus
Sick with greed and obsessed with wealth 2x
So rich was my fury back in the Caribbean sea
I took upon myself the act of piracy
I planned a plot so wild so vacant so over the top
All those villains of Greece are sure to rot
I soon stalked my ship edge to edge I took upon myself a holy pledge
I was to steel to the rich and give to the needy
I was an original robin hood of the sea
Chorus
Robin hood of the sea
2x
bridge
and ill sail across the sea and ill sail for equality
so I set out a mighty April the 4th
just me and myself on a a righteous course
I had no partner I hadnt a need for companion
I sailed alone with dreams full of sin
I sailed with intent I had but one task
My bounty grew each day that passed
I attacked I fled I pillaged I burned
The ways of old I forgot the life of a pirate it what I learned
Chorus
The life of a pirate is what I learned
2x
Late in the night I would silently sneak
I took upon myself this burden to keep
Before anyone would wake up in the dawn
The boat would be looted and I would be gone
My days of placid quiet comfort were gone
I took upon myself this life and the days grew long
Soon set after me was a royal fleet
But they met no glory I was original robin hood b=pirate of the sea
Chorus
The original robin hood pirate of the sea
2x
bridge
and ill sail across the sea and Ill sail for equality
the day awoke a mighty April 5th
just me myself and my pirate ship
The sail strung high so slick my stern
I loathed the day of return
The storm rolled in with cloud a black
I took upon myself a most foolish act
My ship served well ass a lightning rod
The good father struck me and now Im done with God
Chorus
And now Im done with God
2x
And now I am an anti-Christ robin hood pirate of the sea
End bridge
Ill sail across the sea Ill sail for equality
Ill sail until Im done Ill sail into the setting sun (hold)

This song is a Daniel Johnston cover, he is one of our favorite artists, but not most influential. It's a short sweet and to the point kind of song.
True love will find you in the end
You'll find out just who was your friend
Dont be sad, I know you will,
But dont give up until
True love finds you in the end.
This is a promise with a catch
Only if you're looking will it find you
Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
Unless you step out into the light?
But dont give up until
True love finds you in the end.

Etymology video 3 in which I suggest that rich people are generous, further demonstrate my lack of scientific knowledge, hit the big issues on gender equality, explain how folk-etymology works, compliment Tacitus, discuss drinking at weddings, make a terrible analogy about bread, become horrified by Venus fly-traps, ruin Mexican food, comment on Jack White's testicles, suggest that the Bible is bollocks and end with a quote from my housemate.
or
"Gender and Genitals"
Warning: contains some coarse language, crude humour and a joke that only my mate Zeke will get.

Folk etymology is change in a word or phrase over time resulting from the replacement of an unfamiliar form by a more familiar one. Unanalyzable borrowings from foreign languages, like asparagus, or old compounds such as samblind which have lost their iconic motivation (since one or more of the morphemes making them up, like sam-, which meant "semi-", has become obscure) are reanalyzed in a more or less semantically plausible way, yielding, in these examples, sparrow grass and sandblind.
The term folk etymology, a loan translation from the 19th Century academic German Volksetymologie, is a technical one in philology and historical linguistics, referring to the change of form in the word itself, not to any actual explicit popular analysis.
The technical term "folk etymology", a translation of the German Volksetymologie from Ernst Förstemann's essay Ueber Deutsche Volksetymologie in the 1852 work Zeitschrift für vergleichende Sprachforschung auf dem Gebiete des Deutschen, Griechischen und Lateinischen (Journal of Comparative Linguistic Research in the Areas of German, Greek and Latin), is used in the science of historical linguistics to refer to a change in the form of a word caused by erroneous popular beliefs about its derivation.

I had no partner I hadnt a need for companion
I sailed alone with dreams full of sin
I sailed with intent I had but one task
My bounty grew each day that passed
I attacked I fled I pillaged I burned
The ways of old I forgot the life of a pirate it what I learned
Chorus
The life of a pirate is what I learned
2x
Late in the night I would silently sneak
I took upon myself this burden to keep
Before anyone would wake up in the dawn
The boat would be looted and I would be gone
My days of placid quiet comfort were gone
I took upon myself this life and the days grew long
Soon set after me was a royal fleet
But they met no glory I was original robin hood b=pirate of the sea
Chorus
The original robin hood pirate of the sea
2x
bridge
and ill sail across the sea and Ill sail for equality
the day awoke a mighty April 5th
just me myself and my pirate ship
The sail strung high so slick my stern
I loathed the day of return
The storm rolled in with cloud a black
I took upon myself a most foolish act
My ship served well ass a lightning rod
The good father struck me and now Im done with God
Chorus
And now Im done with God
2x
And now I am an anti-Christ robin hood pirate of the sea
End bridge
Ill sail across the sea Ill sail for equality
Ill sail until Im done Ill sail into the setting sun (hold)
wn.com/Folk Etymology Anti Christ Robinhood Pirate Of The Sea
Jocelyn Catterson, Sam Robison, and CJ Garcia performing an original song. Here are the lyrics:
It started with my yearly trip
Just me, myself and my Caribbean ship
Puerto Rico was my land of choice
It was poverty stricken and lacked a voice
Previously I had sailed the islands of Greece
Just me myself and the mixalodeon e
I couldnt understand the abundant wealth the shipping mergants sick with greed and obsessed with self
Chorus
Sick with greed and obsessed with wealth 2x
So rich was my fury back in the Caribbean sea
I took upon myself the act of piracy
I planned a plot so wild so vacant so over the top
All those villains of Greece are sure to rot
I soon stalked my ship edge to edge I took upon myself a holy pledge
I was to steel to the rich and give to the needy
I was an original robin hood of the sea
Chorus
Robin hood of the sea
2x
bridge
and ill sail across the sea and ill sail for equality
so I set out a mighty April the 4th
just me and myself on a a righteous course
I had no partner I hadnt a need for companion
I sailed alone with dreams full of sin

My bounty grew each day that passed
I attacked I fled I pillaged I burned

This song is a Daniel Johnston cover, he is one of our favorite artists, but not most influential. It's a short sweet and to the point kind of song.
True love will find you in the end
You'll find out just who was your friend
Dont be sad, I know you will,
But dont give up until
True love finds you in the end.
This is a promise with a catch
Only if you're looking will it find you
Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
Unless you step out into the light?
But dont give up until
True love finds you in the end.

Stars With Planets On Strange Orbits: What’s Going On?
Edit IFL Science 04 Jun 2016
All the planets in our solar system orbit close to the sun’s equatorial plane. Of the eight confirmed planets, the Earth’s orbit is the most tilted, but even that tilt is still small, at just seven degrees.
