When people see the word “chariot,” they think it has only one meaning, “a horse-drawn, two-wheeled cart used in ancient times for war, racing, etc.” Webster’s Dictionary also says “see CAR.” When we look up “car,” we see the word comes from the Latin word “carrus,” which means “chariot.”
Watu wanapoona neno “gari,” wanadhani lina maana moja tu, “gari linalokokotwa na farasi, lenye magurudumu mawili lililotumika nyakati za kale kwa ajili ya vita, mashindano, n.k.” Kamusi ya Webster pia linasema “tazama motokaa.” Tunapotazama “gari,” tunaona neno hili linatokana na neno la Kilatini “carrus,” ambalo lina maana ya “gari la kuvutwa na farasi.”
