#F71 (few to fiat)
from The Dictionary
I read from few to fiat. About Fez, Morocco: "Up until the late 19th century, the city was the only place in the world which fabricated the fez hat." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fez,_Morocco This must've been the organization my grandpa (or someone!) was a part of for us to have gotten those Fez hats. https://medinah.org/ The word of the episode is "fiasco". One theory is that when Italian glass makers made a mistake, they would end up using that glass to make simple bottles or flasks. Hence: fiasco! https://www.etymonline.com/word/fiasco#etymonline_v_5900 https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/top-10-words-with-remarkable-origins-vol-1 Use my special link https://zen.ai/thedictionary to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.
