Etymology fact of the day: Astronaut and Juggernaut don't have anything in common linguistically. Astronaut may be more familiar, from Greek (astro = star, naut = sailor), but Juggernaut is from Sanskrit (jagat = things that move, and natha = lord).

(this is brought to you by me wondering aloud how one 'navigates the jugger.')

*mind blown*

I would like more etymology facts, please.

And when is your etymology podcast coming back?

Um, akchualeee, Juggernaut is derived from 'Jugger' - a tradesperson who carries massive jugs, and 'naut' - sailor or navigator. Literally a person who is unstoppable because of their ability to navigate while carrying huge jugs.

I went to look up if Dreadnought had linked origins with altered spelling but no, the "nought" is what it is, "nothing". which is weird because surely a big ominous ship would be a Dreadnaut
