Wow! This was pretty interesting @sultnpapper! I would have never guessed that the word "corvette" came from a boat. Thank you also for the link to find the source of words. I've now bookmarked it should I need to look up a word. I can see where it would come in handy ("conveniently accessible") which I just looked up..lol. 😉
ps..did your sister or her husband know the origin? 🤔
