Today’s word of the day is “polyglot,” which means "knowing or using several languages"—that is, "being multilingual." It can also mean "widely diverse (as in ethnic or cultural origins)."

Did you know: Polyglot comes from Greek polyglōttos, a combination of poly-, meaning "many" or "multi-," and glōtta, "language." Eventually, the word came to describe multilingual diversity.
