    Yeah and sine, of trigonometry, comes from latin sinus which meant boobs at the time. In Arabic where the romans got trig from, sine is jiba (which for some reason was mixed up with jaib meaning tits too). Jiba comes from jya in Sankirt, full form was jya-ardha which meant chord-half. Some guy in the Indus valley like 5000 years ago was playing around with pictures of circles and lines crossing through circles and discovered trigonometry and now our words for concepts in it revolve around boobs because somebody misheard someone else in rome.
