In Old English, the two people married were known as ‘husband’ and ‘huswif,’ so maybe we need to go with heman and sheman from now on.

It would have been even better, if I’d said:

“An excellent source of irony.”

But alas, I’m not that witty on the spot. :-P

Fe

Of course that’s iron. What, is that a Latin root or something?

It’s latin for Female Iron. Remember everything was gendered in the world of Romantic Romans

If they put “Fe” on it, too many people would boycott it for gendering the cereal.

Yup, ferrum is the Latin word.

Good thing I speak French, it won’t ever get me confused. In French, iron is called “fer”. Also, copper is “cuivre”, which also matches its periodic table symbol of Cu. Same can be said for lead: “plomb”.

Unfortunately, there’s quite a few that also don’t match the symbol, some aren’t even in English. I always hated how nitrogen is called “azote” in French.

Azides are nitrogen compounds though, so still usefully to know.
