CNN is calling the departure of alleged civilians INTO Egypt as an “Exodus….”
I just found that and ironic choice of terminology.If you ever find yourself driving on a highway in Greece there’s an exodus sign every few kilometers.
Exit, выход Vikhod. Same word.
From the Merriam-Webster dictionary:
The word itself was adopted into English (via Latin) from Greek Exodos, which literally means “the road out.” The Greek word was formed by combining the prefix ex- (meaning “out of”) and hodos, “road” or “way.” Other descendants of the prolific hodos in English include episode, method, odometer, and period.
