Learning Sixteenth-Century Business Jargon
- visarga 5y agoNice read, but doesn't say anything about business jargon.
- spadros 5y agoCame here to say this. Was greatly disappointed by the lack of jargon and etymology.
- maroonblazer 5y agoYeah, I was looking forward to 1500-ish versions of "circle back" "reach out" "leverage" "long pole in tent", etc...
