Also "money" just comes from the latin "moneta," which could refer to the place where coins were minted or to the coins themselves. It was an epithet of Juno.

Coins are munt (past tense of mint) not forged, hence money (the spelling has changed over time) :eng101: Forged money is illegal!

I know I'm wrong, but I always think of English crime as sort of cute and fun. Like, I can't imagine ever being afraid of a criminal in England. Waiving a cheap steak knife at me or something, telling me to give them my wallet in that accent. It's just kind of adorable to think about.

The english freaking out about knife crime is like a child’s realization that their parent has alzheimer’s and doesn’t really know what to tell them.

Yeah, it all seems like fun and games until you meet the equivalent of Bricktop or Bullet-tooth Tony and your viewpoint is irrevocably darkened.

These days it's all about the park muggings. You could be sat there on a bench, or relaxing watching your dog try to murder some geese, and hey! Five lads with knives asking you very politely to hand over your phone and wallet.
