Where did the word coworker come from?
At what point did it cease to matter that you do not know where to find the hyphen key on your computer?
Co-worker. A colleague. A fellow worker. Not an orker of cows.
- Main Entry:
- co-
- Function:
- prefix
- Etymology:
- Middle English, from Latin, from com-; akin to Old English ge-, perfective and collective prefix.
- I feel better now for that. Maybe that's what I'll do for a while. Have quick blogrants.
I am not sure... now you have me wondering about this! Now that I am confused...

Troll-op, genetically modded orc-cows? scary.
