Last week I had my regular cleaning at the dentist. I was not happy about it but then I started doing some thinking. I looked up the word dentist and I realized that the word is actually Latin. I found that very interesting because my mom is a dental assistant and she works in a dental office all the time. At the same time I wasn't surprised because dentistry is a type of medicine and a lot of words in medicine are Latin. I overall found it very cool to see all the different things that have latin in or on them around me.
