EH LuptonApropos of today's #WritingWonders, here's a piece of trivia. "Nostalgia" comes from the Greek 'nostos' (returning home) and 'algos' (pain). However, the term itself was coined in 1688 by a German doctor as a calque of 'heimweh.' It was for many years an actual medical diagnosis that people died of. It didn't take on its current meaning until around 1920.
