Episode 250: Idiosyncrasy
Manage episode 415045441 series 2520888
(Intro & piano music)
I have a three combo word for you today, yup, that's as Greek as it gets! And it seems to have been distorted a little in English in order to single out personality traits but: Ιδιος (idios) in ancient Greek meant 'one's own', we could say 'one's self' but... mmm... ok let's go with that! Συν (sin) means 'with' and κράση (krasi) means 'a mixture' . So the combination of all the things that make someone themselves. From your personality, to your mannerisms, to the way you carry yourself. That singular combination and not one personality trait, that makes you, you is your ΙΔΙΟΣΥΓΚΡΑΣΙΑ/IDIOSYNCRASY
