`  == the word for electricity seems to be from Greek, not Latin ==   From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron#History  The ancient Greeks noticed that amber attracted small objects when rubbed with fur; apart from lightning, this phenomenon was humanity's earliest recorded experience with electricity.[13] In his 1600 treatise De Magnete, the English physician William Gilbert coined the New Latin term electricus, to refer to this property of attracting small objects after being rubbed.[14] Both electric and electricity are derived from the Latin ēlectrum (also the root of the alloy of the same name), which came from the Greek word ήλεκτρον (ēlektron) for amber.   I believe that the origin of the word ``Electricity`` should be corrected (New-Latin > Greek)  on this page as well.  thank you.`
