Although I’m not the one in my family who studied English Language as a major, one of my interests is to make a note of common English misconceptions.
Honestly now, how many of you think that the word to describe a keepsake or a souvenir that serves to remind should be “momento”?
I only just realised today that it should be “memento”.
Weird huh?
Merriam-Webster’s dictionary does not list a word called “momento”.
Maybe it’s because of the word “moment”, as in to “remember the moment”…that’s why we think the word should have been “momento”?
Perhaps.
