I don't believe it, but I can't bring any evidence to bear against it either. In poking around for this, I ran into a truly astounding doublet, whereby the Greek root "authent-" has come into English twice: "authentic" < Fr < Latin < Gk, and "effendi" < Turkish < MGk. -- Income tax, if I may be pardoned for saying so, John Cowan is a tax on income. --Lord Macnaghten (1901) jcowan@reutershealth.com
