Words of Fire

Polish word of the day: ogień (fire). Derived via Proto-Slavic from Proto-Indo-European root *egni-, like the English words "ignite" and "igneous" (via Latin "ignis", meaning "fire"). Sanskrit "Agni" (अग्नि) has the same meaning, and is also the name of the Hindu god of fire. pic.twitter.com/mRPxAK8W7J
