Birthday Break: No New Legal Article Today! πŸŽ‚πŸ₯³


Etymology: "Birthday" πŸ“š

The word "birthday" combines the Old English words "birth" (from Proto-Germanic *burthiz, meaning "the bearing of children") and "day" (from Proto-Germanic *dagaz). Ancient cultures celebrated birth dates differently—Romans celebrated birthdays for men only, while ancient Greeks primarily celebrated the birthdays of deities. The tradition of birthday cakes with candles can be traced back to the Ancient Greeks, who brought cakes adorned with lit candles to the temple of Artemis. πŸ•―️
