New realisation about PayPal for me recently: (Thanks to Alex Middleditch)
PayPal the spoken word sounds like Papal and it's all about the sound, not the direct spellings!
In the 'beginning the word was'
The word “papal” simply means relating to the Pope or the office of the Pope.
The term comes from the Latin word papa, meaning father, which became the title used for the Bishop of Rome, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church.
So anything described as papal is connected to the authority, actions, or office of the Pope.
Examples:
• Papal authority – the authority claimed by the Pope over the Catholic Church• Papal decree / papal bull – an official document issued by the Pope
• Papal states – territories historically ruled by the Pope (in central Italy until 1870)
• Papal nuncio – a diplomatic representative of the Pope to a country
In formal terms, “papal” = of or belonging to the Pope.
Words are spells, that is why we 'spell' words...👀
