Notes and topics

"Plas Penrhyn (sent from #29)"

"I know nothing of the etymology of the word 'sin' except what I have been able to find in the Oxford Dictionary which does not bear out your interesting suggestion. It appears that the word is of Teutonic origin, but is cognate to the Latin sons, which means 'guilty' and represented a very positive idea, not the negation that you suggest."
