I picked up the cake on my way to the party. It was funny that I had to explain to the tennis coach and tennis players that it was a tennis court.

Everyone else calls it football.<br /><br />But did you know the word "soccer" actually comes from the word football? Well, technically, it comes from the compound noun "association football".<br /><br />Apparently, Americans earnestly believed that a game which involved picking up the ball with one's hands and carrying it for the majority of the playing time deserved to be called "football". Therefore, they had to call that game that involved only touching the ball with one's feet something else.<br /><br />Hence, "association football", subsequently shortened to "soccer" by lazy people, and adopted by...<br /><br />Ah, but can you guess which countries adopted it?<br /><br />You already know one of them (USA) but what about the other three? I'll give you a clue: They also use the word "football" to refer to games that involve carrying an oddly shaped ball around the field (just not the same games).Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12383128449697415608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-27359202160292570622010-06-10T01:26:47.379-04:002010-06-10T01:26:47.379-04:00Adriana
